The elections, held on Monday, 30th June 2025, saw King Freeman clinch victory by a razor-thin margin of one vote, narrowly defeating the incumbent, Ewoenam Kpodo.

He acknowledged the weight of responsibility that comes with overseeing the association’s finances and pledged to ensure prudent financial management and full transparency.
He emphasised his unwavering commitment to prioritising the association’s financial health, assuring members that every decision under his stewardship would be in the best interest of both the membership and the association’s long-term development.
His election has been met with great optimism, as members look forward to his leadership in steering the GJA Volta’s financial affairs.
With his vast experience and media background, King Freeman is widely seen as being well-equipped to handle the treasury portfolio and to introduce innovative financial strategies to promote growth, sustainability, and accountability.
