Following his election as New Patriotic Party (NPP) Ashanti Regional Chairman, Odeneho Kwaku Appiah (COKA), has launched a unity drive.
He promised to address concerns across all the 47 constituencies, heal internal divisions, and rebuild grassroots structures to position the party for victory in 2028 elections.
Speaking in a breakfast meeting with Founding Fathers, Council of Elders and Newly Elected Ashanti Regional Executives, on Monday, August 17,2026, in Kumasi, COKA, pledged to adopt a “less talk, more work” approach as he leads the party’s regional affairs ahead of the 2028 general elections.
He said his tenure of office will focus less on media appearances and political rhetoric and more on grassroots mobilisation and tangible results to strengthen the NPP’s fortunes in the Ashanti Region.
According to him, his quiet nature would reflect in his leadership style, with the new executives concentrating on work rather than making noise.
“The work will be less talk and noise but more work. Naturally, I don’t talk much, and that is how we are going to work,” he stated.
COKA said the ultimate goal is to ensure that the impact of the new administration would be reflected in the NPP’s performance in the 2028 elections.
“We will work more so that the results will reflect in 2028,” he mentioned.
He expressed hope in his ability, together with the newly elected regional executives, to deliver results in the period leading to the elections.
“God knows I can do the work in this period, and that is why, together with the other executives elected, we have come at the time,” he said.
He appealed to the founding fathers and the Council of Elders to help rebuild our great party in the Ashanti Region.
“My doors are open to all members to bring ideas and support towards rebuilding the party,” he said.
COKA disclosed that someone has given them a new office space at Danyame and promised to cut sod for the construction of their new office within his first 100 days in office.
