NDC Amenfi West Dep. Constituency Youth Organiser vies for Dep. Western Regional Youth Organiser
He says his candidacy is anchored in the conviction that an effective youth wing must go beyond political mobilisation to empower young people economically, strengthen party structures and position the NDC for sustained political success.
Davis Adjei Mohammed, a hopeful Deputy Western Regional Youth Organiser for the National Democratic Congress, is vying for the role. He boasts a rich background in grassroots party service, youth mobilisation, and economic empowerment programs that have positively impacted numerous young people in Amenfi West. His vision is to combine political mobilisation with economic empowerment, recognising the crucial role that economically empowered young people can play in party success.
With four years as Deputy Constituency Youth Organiser for Amenfi West and another four as a member of the Western Regional Youth Working Committee, he believes his experience equips him to bring both local knowledge and regional insight to the party's youth leadership. He has held various roles, including Youth Representative for Amenfi West Constituency, member of the Amenfi West Youth Working Committee, Youth Organiser for Damang D/A JHS branch, and Branch Secretary of the NDC at Asankrangwa Nursing Training School.
Additionally, his time with the Tertiary Education Institutions Network (TEIN) at Accra Technical University and the University College of Management Studies (UCOMS) has broadened his understanding of student politics and youth mobilisation. Adjei Mohammed's platform emphasises youth empowerment as a cornerstone. Through his Davis Group of Companies, he has championed initiatives that have benefited hundreds of young people in Amenfi West, helping them achieve economic independence and self-reliance.
If elected, he plans to extend this approach across the Western Region, making youth development a central part of his approach to party organisation. He believes that political leadership should address young people's everyday realities, not just their political participation. By focusing on empowerment, he aims to distinguish his leadership and ensure that the welfare and potential of young people are prioritised alongside traditional party responsibilities.
The youth remain a vital asset to the NDC, regardless of whether the party is in government or opposition. In government, they can bolster the administration and present the party as united, while in opposition, their commitment and organisational strength are equally important. Adjei Mohammed argues that young party members invest significant time and effort in the NDC because they see it as a means to advance their aspirations and contribute to national development.
He envisions a youth wing that encourages innovative ideas, maintains active grassroots structures, and provides the support necessary for young people to become effective agents of the party's growth. As the election nears, Adjei Mohammed is striving to convince delegates that his experience and empowerment agenda offer a solid foundation for building a strong youth wing within the NDC.
