Volta NDC Members Pledge to Cover Agbavitor's Filing Fees
Concerned NDC stalwarts in Ghana's Volta Region propose to settle their regional chairman's upcoming filing fees, urging his re-election bid.
A bloc of determined NDC activists operating from Ghana's Volta Region has revealed plans to shoulder the full financial burden of their top local official's mandatory election paperwork. The collective movement said it would directly pay all required fees for Mr Mawutor Agbavitor when he submits his candidacy documents for another term as regional chair. This interference in party dues comes as Agbavitor publicly indicated his willingness to seek re-election in the party's decentralised structures.
The development reflects deep grassroots mobilisation among ordinary party foot soldiers who appear reluctant to see their regional captain displaced. Sources close to the arrangement suggest the group views his continued leadership as pivotal to maintaining the party's organisational footing in the area. Party primaries scheduled across several districts later this year will determine if challengers successfully contest the veteran administrator's bid.
Failure to secure sufficient nomination endorsements would trigger automatic disqualification and render his re-election impossible under Ghana's election bylaws. The filing window closes soon ahead of the scheduled electoral calendar, creating immediate pressure on the regional administration.
