The New Patriotic Party (NPP) has regional chairpersons who oversee the party’s activities and organisational structures across Ghana’s 16 regions.
The regional chairpersons play a key role in coordinating constituency executives, mobilising supporters and implementing decisions of the party’s national leadership at the regional level.
They also serve as important links between the national leadership and grassroots members, particularly during elections and other major party activities.
Here is a list of the NPP’s regional chairpersons:

Role of NPP regional chairpersons
Regional chairpersons are responsible for providing political and administrative leadership within their respective regions.
Among other responsibilities, they work with regional executives to strengthen the party’s structures, organise meetings, mobilise members and coordinate grassroots activities.
They also have an important role during national and local elections, where regional party structures are expected to support campaign activities and help coordinate efforts across constituencies.
The chairpersons are therefore influential figures within the NPP, particularly because the strength of a political party depends heavily on effective organisation at the regional and constituency levels.
Importance to the NPP
The regional executives operate at a critical level of the party’s organisational structure. While the national executives formulate broader strategies, regional leaders are responsible for helping translate those strategies into activities on the ground.
Their work becomes even more important as the party prepares for future elections, including efforts to rebuild its grassroots base and strengthen coordination across the country.
