Nana Moses, former Vice Chair of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) China branch, has thrown his weight behind Robert Sarfo-Mensah, popularly known as Booba, to lead the Ahafo regional NPP as chairman.
Mr Sarfo-Mensah served as the Member of Parliament for Asunafo North Constituency on three consecutive terms from 2005 to 2017, where he spearheaded massive infrastructural and socio-economic development in the area.
He holds an Executive Master’s in General Paralegal Studies (EMGPS) and an Executive Master’s in Alternative Dispute Resolution (EMADR) from the Institute of Paralegal Training and Leadership Studies (IPLS).
In an interview with Myjoyonline in Goaso, Nana Moses eulogised Sarfo-Mensah’s political journey, citing his longstanding service and commitment to party unity and growth, and reputation in community development.
The NPP in the Ahafo region, after the 2024 elections, lost three of its four parliamentary seats to the NDC, with Gideon Boako winning the only seat for the NPP, Tano North Constituency.
The party also performed abysmally in the presidential polls with candidate John Dramani Mahama garnering 128,986, totalling 52.46%, while Dr Bawumia had 113,262, registering 46.07%.
Nana Moses said from the early days as a polling agent at Mim L/A JHS to being an active member of the University of Ghana branch of Friends of John Agyekum Kufuor (1993-2000), Booba’s loyalty to the NPP has been consistent.
In 2021, Booba was the secretary to the vetting Committee of Municipal and District Chief Executives (MDCEs) in Ahafo Region, Regional Coordinator for the NPP’s 2020 Election and a member of the Regional Campaign Team.
From 2013 to 2016, Sarfo-Mensah chaired the then Brong-Ahafo Caucus in Parliament, was a member of the NPP National Council, and part of the NPP Manifesto Committee on Employment and Labour.
According to the former NPP China branch officer, the strategic role Booba played as Brong-Ahafo Campaign Coordinator for then-presidential candidate Nana Akufo-Addo in 2012 showed his deep grassroots engagement and organizational strength.
Between 2009 and 2012, he was the Caucus Secretary for Brong-Ahafo NPP MPs and consistently served on regional campaign teams between 2004 and 2012.
He said Booba, in his public life, served as the Director-General of the National Sports Authority between 2017 and 2018 and was an Assistant Revenue Officer at the Value Added Tax Service from 2001 to 2004, a teacher at Mim Secondary School from 1997 to 2001.
He was part of Ghana’s delegation to various International Labour Organisation (ILO) conferences in Geneva and attended study tours and seminars across Canada, China, Belgium, the UK, Togo, and Namibia, gaining invaluable governance and leadership experience.
Born on April 1, 1970, Sarfo-Mensah is a result-oriented politician and an enterprising agriculturist which drive his passion for public service beyond personal ambition, which is rooted in his vision to see the NPP grow stronger and recapture power in 2028.
He noted that Mr Sarfo-Mensah has served the NPP faithfully across all levels, has vast leadership experience, unmatched grassroots connection, and a powerful vision for unity and victory, urging party delegates and stakeholders to rally behind him.
“His track record of hard work, dedication, and loyalty makes him the best candidate to lead Ahafo NPP to reclaim its lost parliamentary seats, and solve the party’s reduction of vote margins in the presidential polls”, he added.
“As a leading member of the party in the Ahafo region, Booba believes that politics must unite rather than divide, bringing people together under a common umbrella for societal advancement”, he affirms.
