Over 2,667 delegates are expected to vote to elect new executives for the National Democratic Congress (NDC) in the Ketu South Constituency on Friday, October 23, 2026.
A total of 74 aspirants who filed nominations have now been cleared to contest the various positions after the completion of vetting, balloting and appeals.
This follows a successful appeal by the incumbent Constituency Secretary, Mr Desmond Kweku Tsewu, who was earlier disqualified during vetting. With his reinstatement, the Secretary position is now a straight contest between Mr Tsewu and Mr Reginald Edem Zigah, who had earlier been cleared as the sole candidate.
The update brings the total number of cleared aspirants to 74, from the 73 initially announced in the party’s official Vetting Results and Balloting Positions.
The elections were rescheduled from the original dates of October 24 and 25 due to the final funeral rites of the late Torgbui Addo, Paramount Chief of the Klikor Traditional Area.
