NDC assures readiness for Volta regional elections as 21,388 delegates prepare to vote

The National Democratic Congress (NDC) has pledged full readiness for its constituency and regional executive elections in the Volta Region, which began on Friday, October 23 and are set to continue until Sunday, October 25, 2026. Dr. Franklin Gedzia, the Volta Regional Director of Elections for the NDC, made the assurance during an interview with Adom News Correspondent Odehyeba Owusu Job.

He revealed that 21,388 delegates across the region's 18 constituencies will cast their votes, with 1,004 candidates vying for various executive positions.

Voting has already commenced in the Ketu South Constituency, where over 2,000 delegates are expected to participate in electing new constituency executives. Dr. Gedzia emphasized the importance of maintaining unity, peace, and discipline throughout the electoral process. He urged delegates and aspirants to support whichever candidate is elected and work collaboratively to strengthen the party before the 2028 general elections.

The NDC elections are a crucial part of the party's internal reorganization process, aimed at electing leaders to manage its affairs at both the constituency and regional levels. Dr. Gedzia's call for unity comes as the party carries out this process across the Volta Region, with the hope that the outcome will influence its leadership structure and overall organizational efforts in the lead-up to the 2028 general elections.
