Central Region NDC Names Top Contenders for MMDCE Slots

The Central Region branch of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) has officially unveiled the list of shortlisted applicants for the positions of Metropolitan, Municipal, and District Chief Executives (MMDCEs).

This move follows a rigorous vetting process, where three candidates were carefully selected from each constituency in the region.

According to Prof. Richard Kofi Asiedu, the Regional Chairman, the selection process was transparent and based on verifiable proof of party affiliation, as well as the applicants’ ability to meet the criteria for chief executive as stipulated by the 1992 Constitution. The committee also considered the customary, geographical, and ethnic composition of each district to ensure a balanced distribution of political power and influence.

The shortlisted candidates will now await the approval of the President and the relevant assemblies. The MMDCEs play a vital role in providing political and administrative leadership in their respective districts, and their appointment is crucial for the development of the region.
