National Treasurer hopeful of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), Dr. Alhaji Issahaku Tahiru Moomin, says finance, research and effective communication will play a major role in the party’s efforts to win the 2028 general elections.
According to him, the party needs adequate financial resources to support research and communication strategies aimed at winning votes, stressing the need for a professional and experienced person to manage the party’s finances.
Dr. Moomin said the NPP’s finances are currently not in good standing and require restructuring.
He believes he has the requisite experience and capacity to develop programmes at the constituency level to empower various departments of the party, including Nasara, Research, Communications, Organizers, Youth and Women’s Organizers.
He appealed to delegates to give him the nod to serve as National Treasurer and execute his vision for the party.
Speaking to journalists after his vetting, Dr. Moomin said he had been an accountant throughout his professional career, having studied Accounting at the Senior High School, university and subsequently worked as an accountant in various government institutions.
He disclosed that he had worked with the Controller and Accountant-General’s Department, the Ghana Health Service and the Ghana Revenue Authority (GRA), and also served as a lecturer at the University for Development Studies (UDS).
On his political experience, Dr. Moomin said he served as the NPP Parliamentary Candidate for Wa Central in the 2012 and 2016 general elections and later served as Municipal Chief Executive (MCE) for Wa Central from 2017 to 2024.
He added that his experience at the grassroots level of the party has given him valuable knowledge and the qualities needed to effectively serve as National Treasurer.
Dr. Moomin is therefore urging delegates to support his candidature, arguing that his professional background in accounting, experience in public service and political experience make him well positioned to help restructure and strengthen the party’s finances ahead of the 2028 elections.
