The governing National Democratic Congress (NDC) has initiated the interview process for applicants aiming to serve as Metropolitan, Municipal, and District Chief Executives (MMDCEs) in the Ashanti region.
The exercise forms part of the new government's commitment to competence, dedication and visionary leadership at the local government level.
The interview is scheduled to take place within three days and it is structured to cover all 43 metropolitan, municipal, and district areas in the region.
The first day is focused on applicants from 11 MMDAs, with 88 aspirants undergoing the rigorous vetting procedure.
Throughout the process, 343 applicants will present their qualifications, leadership skills, and vision to the selection committee.
The NDC’s leadership in the region has stressed the importance of the exercise, viewing it as a vital step in identifying leaders capable of effectively implementing the party’s development agenda at the grassroots level.
Candidates are expected to demonstrate a strong understanding of the socio-economic dynamics in their areas and propose practical strategies to address issues such as unemployment, infrastructure, sanitation, and access to education and healthcare.
