Incumbent Chairman of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) in Nabdam, Tetteh Zure, has retained his position after polling 339 votes to defeat his contender, Douglas Tohugto, who secured 178 votes in the constituency delegates conference.
Following his victory, Mr Zure has called for unity within the party, urging unsuccessful candidates to put the contest behind them and contribute to strengthening the NDC ahead of future elections.
In a congratulatory message to the newly elected executives, he acknowledged the challenges ahead, saying the party must work hard to meet the high expectations of Ghanaians as a governing party.
He said his doors remained open to candidates who lost the elections, stressing that their contributions would remain relevant to his leadership.
“Politics is a game of numerical strengths, and this is the right time to build bridges and not walls,” he said, while urging party members to offer constructive criticism and work together for the party’s future.
Mr Zure also thanked delegates and party stakeholders for renewing their confidence in him, pledging to do more to serve the party and advance what he described as the shared hope of a better Nabdam.
