Mahmud Kabore has picked up nomination forms to contest the position of Ashanti Regional Communication Officer of Ghana's governing National Democratic Congress (NDC). Kabore aims to strengthen the party's communication structures and equip communicators with timely and accurate information if elected. His political involvement began at the grassroots level, progressing through the branch, constituency, regional, and national communication structures of the party.
Kabore's experience includes serving as acting branch secretary at Asuboasu L/A Primary School in the Sekyere Afram Plains area following the death of the substantive branch secretary. He has worked under various communication directors, gaining an understanding of the challenges facing political communication. Kabore believes his experience makes him suitable to lead the party's Ashanti Regional Communications Team.
Kabore's priorities include improving coordination among regional, constituency, and branch communication structures, ensuring communicators receive timely and reliable information. He also emphasizes training, particularly in policy communication and social media use. Additionally, Kabore aims to address negative perceptions of the NDC in the Ashanti Region through strategic communication.
The contest is part of the NDC's internal processes ahead of preparations for the 2028 general elections. Kabore seeks to lead the party's communication team in the Ashanti Region, building on previous communication teams' achievements rather than discarding them. He highlights the welfare of party communicators, stating their work should be supported with necessary resources, information, and organisational structures.
Kabore's vision includes uniting communicators, strengthening structures, amplifying the party's message, and making the Ashanti Region a stronger communications force for victory in 2028 and beyond. He plans to work with all stakeholders, building on the foundation laid by the Lawyer Sammy Gyamfi-led administration at the national level and the Lawyer Abass Nurudeen-led administration in the Ashanti Region.
The NDC's internal processes are crucial as the party prepares for the 2028 general elections. Kabore's candidacy is one of several contests for various positions within the party. His focus on communication structures and strategies aims to enhance the party's performance in the Ashanti Region.
