Avoeme west: Madam Faustina Elikplim Korwu, the Assembly Member of Avoeme West Electoral Area in the Ketu South Constituency of the Volta Region, has declared her intention to contest for the position of deputy women's organiser in the National Democratic Congress (NDC) for the area. She officially announced her candidacy, emphasizing the necessity for a strong, transparent, and dedicated woman to maintain the party's competitiveness.
According to Ghana News Agency, Madam Korwu highlighted that a weak organisational structure could lead to the party's decline. She stressed the critical role of an organised women's wing, saying that without a truthful, dedicated, and vibrant servant-leader, a political party would struggle to survive.
Madam Korwu pointed out the importance of modern women management within the party and argued for aligning the NDC's women's organisation with love and care to foster development. She pledged to infuse youthful energy rooted in trust, competence, and transparency into the role, asserting her suitability for the position to ensure the party's success.
Her candidacy promises to bring a pragmatic grassroots experience, introducing innovative ideas and programs to strengthen the NDC's foundation for the 2028 general election. She committed to maintaining accountability, accessibility, and integrity within the party, aiming to energize the branch women's structure and mobilize support.
She appealed to party members to support her candidacy for a brighter future for women and the party, urging them to "vote massively for me for a better future of the women and the party."
The deputy women organiser role is considered vital for the NDC's strategy to enhance its women's wing and competitiveness in the Ketu South Constituency. Madam Korwu's experience as an assembly member is anticipated to bring valuable insights into the party's needs.
The outcome of the NDC's decision on this position will be closely observed, as it could impact the party's performance in upcoming elections. The Ghana News Agency will continue to monitor the developments and any new declarations in the coming days.
