In a surprising move, former Member of Parliament for Awutu-Senya East, Hawa Koomson, has announced her intention to contest for the position of National Women’s Organizer for the New Patriotic Party (NPP).
This development comes after Koomson’s defeat in the 2024 parliamentary elections, marking the end of her three-term tenure as MP.
Hawa Koomson, who also served as the Minister for Fisheries and Aquaculture Development from 2021 to 2024, has been a dedicated member of the NPP for decades.
Her commitment to the party and her passion for women’s empowerment makes her a strong contender for the National Women’s Organizer position.
Flyers announcing Koomson’s intention to contest for the position have gone viral on social media, generating buzz among party members and supporters.
The position of National Women’s Organizer is currently held by Kate Gyamfua, who has served two terms in the role, and there are indications she is not seeking another term.
Hawa Koomson, who is yet to officially declare her candidacy, is expected to bring a fresh perspective and new energy to the position, which is crucial in promoting women’s participation and empowerment within the party.
