A leading member of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) in the Ashanti Region, Comrade Emmanuel Reagan Fynn, popularly known by the slogan “Job Dey Ground,” has officially declared his intention to contest for the position of Ashanti Regional Organiser of the party.
Comrade Fynn made this announcement during an interview on Adehye 99.1 FM’s Morning Show, Ghana Ekɔsen, a Kumasi-based radio station, on Friday. He explained that his decision follows extensive consultations with key stakeholders and sustained calls from party grassroots across the Ashanti Region and beyond.
Describing his decision as a call to service, Comrade Fynn emphasized his commitment to strengthening the party’s grassroots structures and repositioning the Ashanti Region as a formidable stronghold of the NDC ahead of the 2028 general elections.
“In all my political life, I have been organising. Everything I do has to do with organising,” he stated.
Highlighting his political journey, Comrade Fynn noted that he is a product of the grassroots, having served diligently in various capacities including Branch Secretary, Ward Youth Organiser, Constituency Youth Organiser, and currently as Deputy Ashanti Regional Youth Organiser. He underscored that this progression has equipped him with deep institutional knowledge and practical experience in party organisation and mobilisation.
A professional teacher by training, Comrade Fynn explained that his academic and professional background positions him to modernise the party’s organizational operations through strategic planning, discipline, and structured capacity-building.
Outlining his vision for the region, he pledged to:
Empower grassroots members through continuous training and capacity-building,
Foster unity across all party structures,
Strengthen party presence in traditional strongholds and swing areas, and Increase the number of NDC Members of Parliament in the Ashanti Region from seven (7) to fifteen (15) in the 2028 elections.
Citing tangible results from his organizing efforts, he pointed to Kokoben as an example:
“If you go to Kokoben, we have increased our votes from six (6) to over four hundred (400). That is part of my hard work. If you are not an organiser, you cannot do that work. It is a typical Akan-dominated area, and there are many other areas where I have helped to strengthen the party base.”
Comrade Fynn further reaffirmed his deep-rooted commitment to grassroots engagement, recalling that even during his time as a Branch Youth Organiser, he worked closely with all branch executives and was familiar with their communities and homes, an approach he believes is critical to effective party organisation.
“If the Ashanti Region is to be vibrant and attractive, the role of the organizer cannot be overlooked. With my wealth of experience, I humbly present myself as your next Ashanti Regional Organiser. I urge all party faithful to rally behind me for a shared victory,” he concluded.
