Ashie Moore, Benjamin Danso and Others: See the Full List of NDC Regional Chairmen

The National Democratic Congress (NDC) has elected new regional chairmen in 11 of Ghana’s 16 regions following its internal elections held on Saturday, November 14, 2026. The results have brought some major changes to the party’s regional leadership, with Benjamin Danso’s victory in Greater Accra emerging as one of the most talked-about outcomes.

The elections were held as part of the party’s efforts to reorganise its structures and prepare for the political challenges ahead of the 2028 general elections. While some experienced chairmen retained their positions, other regions welcomed new leaders.

One of the biggest surprises came in Greater Accra, where Benjamin Danso defeated incumbent Emmanuel Nii Ashie Moore. Ashie Moore had expressed confidence before the election that delegates would reward his work, but the final result went in Danso’s favour.

The newly elected regional chairmen whose results had been reported are:

At the time these results were reported, the chairmanship outcomes for Ahafo, Central, Oti, Savannah and Upper West were still pending.

Some of the results also showed strong support for sitting chairmen. In the Upper East Region, Alhaji Bolnaba retained his position with 371 votes against Duncan Nsoh Ghaneba’s 151. In the Bono Region, Kwadwo Nyamekye-Marfo secured 361 votes, defeating Justice Samuel Adjei, who received 36.

The elections are important because regional chairmen play a major role in organising party activities, maintaining contact with grassroots members and coordinating political campaigns.

The next major task for the elected leaders will be to bring party members together and strengthen their structures ahead of future elections.
