The National Service Personnel Association (NASPA) has elected five new national executives for the 2024–2025 service year at its 41st annual national congress in Koforidua, in the Eastern Region.
The newly elected executives are the President of the group Andy Amuaku, Justice Tetteh as General Secretary, Reuben Nketiah as Financial Secretary, Arafat Ibrahim Mbillah as Organising Secretary and Christabel Seyram Agbley as Women’s Commissioner.
From September 27 to 29 congress brought together 60 regional executives of NASPA and several stakeholders from across the country.
The congress focused on addressing key issues in national service activities and featured discussions on innovative solutions, idea-sharing, as well as the election of new executives.
Outgoing NASPA President Gideon Osei encouraged the new leadership to exceed expectations.
"Let me use this opportunity to congratulate all elected executives. You shouldn’t see the position as an avenue for self-aggrandizement. Make sure you promote development and eschew rancour, bickering, and unruly behaviours. They are unpatriotic and certainly not in line with NASPA’s ideologies," he advised.
He also lauded the Director-General of the National Service Authority (NSA), Osei Assibey-Antwi, for his continuous support of NASPA, ensuring the success of the Congress and elections.
For his part, the newly elected NASPA President, Andy Amuaku, expressed his gratitude to God and the regional executives for voting him into office.
"I’m particularly thankful to God for this victory. My executives and I intend to work hard to continue the good works of our predecessor, Gideon Osei, and the rest of the outgoing executives," he said.
He also pledged to build on NASPA's achievements and ensure that the interests of its members are well represented.
Mr Amuaku also stressed the need for unity, especially during a time when other student elections, such as those of the University Students' Association of Ghana, are occurring.
