    George Dadzie Junior tipped for NDC Western secretary role by supporters

    Supporters of George Dadzie Junior are backing the former Western Regional Youth Organiser to become the National Democratic Congress’s next regional secretary, citing his experience in grassroots mobilisation and party organisation.

    They say his work within the NDC’s youth wing has prepared him to coordinate regional activities, improve communication with constituency and branch officers, and respond to members’ concerns.

    Yaw Asomaning, identified as an NDC activist, said Dadzie Junior’s commitment to party work was a reason to support him.

    “One of the qualities frequently associated with his political career is his reputation for hard work,” he said.

    Asomaning argued that effective grassroots mobilisation and sustained engagement with members would be important to Dadzie Junior’s performance as regional secretary.

    Another supporter, Ali Mahad, pointed to his previous leadership role in the regional youth wing. He said that experience had given Dadzie Junior familiarity with political organisation and communication between party leaders and members.

    His backers also argue that he could bring together groups with competing interests within the regional party. They describe his willingness to listen and maintain working relationships as qualities that could help strengthen internal cooperation.

    Samad Sulemana, who also supports his bid, emphasised the coordination responsibilities of the office. He argued that the regional secretary needed administrative competence, diplomacy and the ability to work closely with the regional chairman and other executives.

    Party members’ welfare is another issue raised by Dadzie Junior’s supporters. They say regional leaders should recognise the contributions of grassroots activists, respond to their concerns and involve them in decisions beyond election periods.

    The outcome will depend on delegates’ votes. For now, the case presented by Dadzie Junior’s backers centres on his previous party service and their assessment of his ability to build a more coordinated regional organisation.
