The Western Regional Chairman of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), Nana Kojo Toku, has formally announced his intention to seek re-election, reaffirming his commitment to continue leading the party in the region toward further consolidation and growth.
He made the declaration during a live interview on Connect FM’s evening political show, Asem Dzi Ka, on January 5, 2026, in direct response to a question from the program’s host, Benjamin Paa Kojo Peters.
“I am fully prepared to seek re-election when the polls open. My record, from the time we were in opposition through to becoming the governing party, speaks for itself.
Considering another term in the regional elections will not be a challenge, given the strong and positive relationship I share with our party members across the region.
My vision is to not only maintain every seat we captured from the opposition particularly those in the Sekondi Takoradi metropolis but also to secure the two remaining seats”. He stated.
In his remarks, the Chairman emphasized the need for continuity in leadership and unity among party structures to consolidate the gains achieved during his tenure.
He stated that the party in the region requires experienced, firm, and visionary leadership to strengthen its grassroots base, mobilize support, and effectively position itself for future electoral success.
He assured party members of his commitment to continue collaborating with constituency executives, branch leaders, and all stakeholders to enhance internal cohesion and discipline.
“Let us maintain our internal cohesion and discipline at every level of the party from the branch and constituency to the regional level as we prepare for the upcoming elections.” He added.
The Chairman also urged members to remain focused, united, and dedicated to the shared objective of building a stronger and more competitive party in the region.
This declaration highlights his confidence in the support of the party’s base and his determination to maintain the progress, stability, and strategic direction of the regional party structure.
