Approximately 9000 National Democratic Congress (NDC) delegates will gather in the Accra sports stadium today, December 17, 2022, to choose the party’s national executives.

The current Chair, Samuel Ofosu Ampofo, the current General Secretary, Johnson Asiedu Nketiah, a former member of parliament named Nii Armah Ashiety, and Samuel Yaw Adusei are vying for the job of national chairman.
