Three senior members of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) are on course to retain or secure key national executive positions unopposed ahead of the party’s national elections scheduled for December 2026.
Fifi Fiavi Kwetey, Joseph Yammin and Ako Gunn are the only aspirants listed for the positions of General Secretary, National Organiser and National Communications Officer, respectively.
The three emerged as the sole candidates for their respective positions following the release of the list of aspirants by the party on November 9, 2026.
Their positions are, however, subject to the party’s vetting process ahead of the elections.
The contest for National Chairman, on the other hand, is expected to be keen, with four party members filing to lead the NDC.

The Deputy General Secretary position has also attracted four aspirants: Barbara Asamoah, Mustapha Gbande, Isaac Kwame and Abdul Rashid Abdul Raman.
Meanwhile, three candidates have been listed for the National Youth Organiser position. They are Sanicara, Okai Mintah and Nhyira Odartefio.
The Vice Chair position has attracted the highest number of aspirants, with 19 individuals expressing interest in the role, according to the list released by the party.
The National Women’s Organiser race, however, has attracted two candidates: Abigail Elorm Mensah and Betty Nana Mensah.
The NDC is expected to elect its national officers in December 2026 as part of efforts to strengthen its leadership ahead of the 2028 general elections.
The elected executives will be responsible for managing the party’s affairs for the next four years.
All aspirants are expected to undergo vetting before the party provides further details on the election timetable.
