AmountWura Rising: The Workhorse Ready to Power the NDC in Eastern Region

 By Edwin Kobina Amoquandoh

In Ghana’s political landscape, few names embody relentless drive and grassroots passion like Vincent Opoku Sarkodie, popularly known as “AmountWura.” His nickname reflects more than a moniker—it represents a reputation for sheer energy, hard work, and determination to amount to something meaningful for his people.



At a time when the strength of a political party depends greatly on how resources are managed and how the grassroots are empowered, leaders with vision, discipline, and accountability are needed more than ever. AmountWura has stepped forward with practical and refreshing ideas that speak directly to these needs.


Among his bold commitments is the introduction of insurance packages for constituency executives across all 33 constituencies of the Eastern Region. This initiative will protect those who sacrifice for the party and build greater motivation and loyalty among the grassroots leadership.


He has also outlined plans to ensure financial transparency through Mobile Money Merchant SIMs for all constituencies. With this system, party funds will be easier to track, less prone to suspicion, and handled in a modern and accountable way. By championing this, he is showing that financial stewardship should not only be about keeping books but about building trust, efficiency, and confidence at every level of the party.


In addition, his vision includes innovative fundraising methods and better resource mobilization to support the party’s operations and grassroots activities. For him, every cedi must work for the collective good, fueling growth and securing victory.


What makes Vincent Opoku Sarkodie stand out is not just his ideas, but his personality and work ethic. Known as a “workaholic,” he is someone who treats responsibility as a mission, not a title. His energy and sense of accountability make him the kind of leader who will not only protect resources but also find creative ways to grow them for the benefit of the entire party structure.


The Eastern Region is the cornerstone of the NDC’s success , and it requires leaders who understand that financial strength, grassroots empowerment, and transparency are the keys to winning. AmountWura is rising, and with his vision and commitment, the NDC in the Eastern Region can look forward to a future that is not only stronger but also more accountable and people-centered.

John Evans Kumordzi was officially confirmed as the Municipal Chief Executive (MCE). The confirmation took place at the Municipal Assembly Hall in Akropong amidst intense political activity and public interest. The proceedings began at exactly 1:00 PM, with 48 assembly members comprising 32 elected and 16 government appointees present to cast their votes. As required by the Local Government Act, the nominee needed to secure at least two-thirds majority, translating to 32 votes, for confirmation. The initial round of voting stirred tension within the hall after the counting agents mistakenly announced the results, sparking murmurs and visible unease among attendees. The first round tallied 30 votes in favor of Hon. Kumordzi and 18 against — falling short of the required threshold. Following consultations, a recount was called, and this time, Hon....
