Ofosu-Ampofo Explains Why He Will Not Seek Return As NDC Chairman

Former National Chairman of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), Dr. Samuel Ofosu-Ampofo, has announced that he will not seek to return to the position in the party’s upcoming national executive elections.

His decision removes one of the party’s former leading figures from the contest as the NDC prepares to elect its next national leadership team.

Ofosu-Ampofo explained that his decision was influenced by his willingness to continue contributing to the NDC and the government in other capacities. Rather than pursue another term as national chairman, he believes he can still play a role in advancing the party’s interests through different responsibilities.

The announcement comes at a time when attention is increasingly turning to the party’s internal electoral process and the individuals expected to compete for key national positions.

As a former national chairman, Ofosu-Ampofo has previously occupied one of the most influential positions within the NDC. His decision not to contest therefore marks a notable development in the preparations for the upcoming leadership election.

The national chairmanship is particularly significant because the person elected will be expected to help coordinate the party’s organisational activities, strengthen its structures and work with other executives to manage internal affairs.

By ruling himself out, Ofosu-Ampofo has made clear that he intends to remain available to serve the party and government without seeking the chairmanship again.

His announcement also creates an opportunity for other interested party members to pursue the position as the NDC prepares for the next phase of its leadership arrangements.

For now, the former chairman’s focus, according to his stated position, is on finding other ways to contribute to the party’s work and the government.

His decision is expected to be part of the wider conversation surrounding the NDC’s leadership choices as the party moves towards its national elections.
