Benjamin Danso unseats Ashie Moore to win Greater Accra NDC chairmanship

Benjamin Danso has been elected the new Greater Accra Regional Chairman of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), unseating the incumbent, Emmanuel Nii Ashie Moore, in the party’s keenly contested regional executive elections.

At the close of polls held on Saturday, November 14, 2026, Mr Danso secured a win with 515 votes to defeat Mr Ashie Moore, who trailed in second place with 295 votes.

The other contenders in the race, Michael Tetteh Kwetey and Ibrahim Jajah, polled 161 votes and 63 votes respectively.

Mr Moore had expressed strong confidence in retaining his seat, insisting that delegates would reward his hard work and stewardship of the party in the region with a renewed mandate.

Delegates, however, voted overwhelmingly in favour of Mr Danso, entrusting him with the leadership of the party in the Greater Accra Region for the next four years.
