The Member of Parliament (MP) for the Komenda-Edina-Eguafo-Abrem, Dr Ato Quarshie, has been elected the new Central Regional Chairman of the National Democratic Congress (NDC). This was the outcome of the NDC’s regional delegates congress at Cape Coast at the weekend. It was attended by 85 delegates from 17 constituencies in the region.

Other officials elected were Messrs Anin-Adjei, Organiser; Peter Coomson, Secretary; Alhaji Abubakar; Treasurer, and Adams Kofi, Youth Organiser. The rest were, Messrs Abeiku Aggrey, First Deputy Youth Organiser; James Mettle, Second Deputy Youth Organiser; Asoma Kofi Anderson, Propaganda Secretary, Ben Abdallah, Deputy Propaganda Secretary; and Ms Rebecca Forson, Women’s Organiser.

In his acceptance speech, Dr Quarshie promised to work hard to unite members of the party in the region to prepare adequately for the 2004 presidential and parliamentary elections. He advised the delegates to work as a team and strive to tolerate one another’s views to ensure that the NDC recaptures political power in the next elections.
