In the heart of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), a quiet force is rising Hon. Alhassan Yakubu Abanga, the party’s National Vice Chairman, is quickly becoming one of the most admired and respected figures in Ghana’s political landscape.

His style is not loud or attention-seeking rather, he is what many describe as a “silent sailor” and “smooth operator,” moving with strategic precision, humility, and undeniable effectiveness.
Beyond politics, Hon. Abanga is widely known for his compassionate and benevolent nature. His generosity has touched lives in every corner of the country, especially among the poor, the sick, and the vulnerable. Yet, many of his acts of kindness go unspoken because he chooses to do good, not for the spotlight, but out of sincere passion for people.
Recently, he extended support to one of Ghana’s most cherished Kumawood actors, Wayoosi, during a difficult time. He has also been a pillar of support for rising music talent Super Sandy, a student whose dreams have been kept alive through his unwavering assistance. These are just glimpses into the many lives he continues to impact quietly and powerfully.
Hon. Abanga is deeply connected to the grassroots. From the young to the old, he is seen as accessible, relatable, and committed to the cause of building a better Ghana. His strong ties with the media reflect his openness and his belief in the power of communication and connection.
Today, there is a growing conversation within the party and across national circles Hon. Alhassan Yakubu Abanga is destined for even greater leadership. His name is beginning to shine across regions, and many believe he is more than capable of rising to take on a bigger role within the NDC in the near future.
As Ghana’s political space continues to evolve, it is clear that leaders like Hon. Abanga are exactly what the nation needs visionary, grounded, and guided by service. He may be a silent sailor, but the waves he’s creating are powerful and promising.
Indeed, the future is bright for Hon. Alhassan Yakubu Abanga a man of the people, for the people.
