The Upper East Regional Chairman of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), Chairman Alhaji Abdulai Mumuni Bolnaba, has been re elected to lead the party in the region after securing 371 votes in the party’s regional elections held at the GNAT Hall on Saturday, November 14, 2026.
His re election followed an emphatic appeal to delegates, party executives and supporters to uphold peace, unity and tolerance throughout the electoral process, stressing the need to place the collective interest of the party above individual ambitions.
Addressing delegates ahead of the polls, Chairman Bolnaba urged them to exercise patience and make thoughtful choices by voting for leaders who had the vision, commitment and capacity to strengthen the party and promote its growth.
He cautioned against violence and unnecessary confrontations, emphasising that the elections should be conducted in an atmosphere of peace and mutual respect.
“I don’t want anybody to go and fight. We want to finish the elections successfully so that the whole of Ghana will know that the Upper East Region is a peaceful region,” he appealed.
Chairman Bolnaba further called on party executives, supporters and delegates to remain united, regardless of the outcome of the elections, noting that the progress of the NDC, the region and its people should be the common priority of every party member.
He maintained that leadership contests should not create divisions within the party, but rather provide an opportunity to elect capable individuals who could work together towards achieving the party’s goals.
His appeal reflected the importance of political tolerance and internal cohesion, particularly at a time when the party was seeking to consolidate its structures and strengthen its presence in the region.
Later in the evening, at approximately 6:15 p.m., Chairman Alhaji Abdulai Mumuni Bolnaba was declared re elected after polling 371 votes, securing another mandate to steer the affairs of the NDC in the Upper East Region.
His victory marks a renewed opportunity for him to lead the party, build stronger internal relationships and advance the collective aspirations of its members.
The peaceful conduct of the elections and the chairman’s call for unity underscore the importance of togetherness in strengthening the party’s democratic structures and fostering political stability in the Upper East Region.
