The Ada Traditional Council has extended its warm congratulations to interior Minister, Muntaka Mohammed-Mubarak Muntaka on his appointment as Minister for the Interior.
In a meeting at his office in Accra, the Council, led by Asafoatsengua Buertey Okumko Obuapong IV, Senior Warlord of Adibrawe Clan of Ada, on behalf of the Paramount Chief of Ada Traditional Area, commended the Minister for his tireless efforts in promoting peace and security across the country through stakeholder engagement.
The Council expressed gratitude for Mubarak Muntaka ’s good work since assuming office and discussed key areas of importance between the Ada Traditional Council and the Ministry of the Interior, focusing on security and development.
The Minister reaffirmed his commitment to maintaining peace, security and stability in the country, emphasising that they are core to his mandate and will perform his duties diligently, effectively and efficiently for the benefit of all.
He appealed to the Council and Ghanaians to support the government in ensuring peace and security, highlighting that this is a collective responsibility crucial for development and business growth.
Deputy National Women Organiser of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), Mimi Duah, has openly declared her support for Mavis Hawa Koomson as the next National Women’s Organiser of the party.
In a statement endorsing Hawa Koomson’s candidature, Ms Duah outlined four key reasons why she believes the former MP and Minister of State is best placed to lead the party’s women’s wing.
According to her, Hawa Koomson is a motherly figure who rose from the grassroots and is widely noted for her forgiving nature and ability to foster unity.
“She is a true grassroots mother who easily forgives, fosters unity, provides guidance and arbitrates to ensure all aggrieved party women are brought on board to ensure a unified women’s wing,” she stated.
Ms Duah also pointed to Hawa Koomson’s vast experience, having served as a Constituency Women’s Organiser, Member of Parliament and Minister of State, noting that the experience positions her to provide effective leadership as National Women’s Organiser.
She further described Hawa Koomson as capable of making the women’s wing resourceful, through her extensive network and business contacts, to lobby for logistics, training and financial support for women organisers at all levels.
Lastly, she said the NPP as an opposition party needs fearless, bold and assertive leadership at the women’s front to inspire regional, constituency and polling station women organisers as the party reorganises towards the 2028 elections.
“We need a Women’s Organiser who has been tested, who is bold, who understands grassroots women, and who can lead us to victory in 2028. Hon. Mavis Hawa Koomson is that leader,” she stressed.
