Asomaning Atta Ballack eyes NALAG Western North Representative position

Asomaning Atta Ballack, Assembly Member for the Asuontaa Electoral Area in the Bia West District, is seeking to become the National Association of Local Authorities of Ghana (NALAG) Western North Representative.

His candidature is focused on strengthening the representation of assembly members, promoting unity and ensuring that the concerns of local authorities across the region receive greater attention.

The National Association of Local Authorities of Ghana (NALAG) is a nationwide organization and the voice of all Local Authorities (Metropolitan, Municipal, and District Assemblies – MMDAs) in Ghana. It exists to promote the interests of Local Authorities, strengthen decentralization, and advance participatory local governance for sustainable development.

Mr Ballack is appealing to fellow assembly members to support his bid, pledging to serve their collective interests and provide a strong voice for members within the association.

He has also highlighted the importance of effective collaboration among assembly members, noting the need for a united front in addressing challenges confronting local authorities and improving local governance.

Through his bid, Mr Ballack hopes to contribute to discussions and decisions affecting local authorities while ensuring that the views, concerns and priorities of assembly members in the Western North Region are adequately represented at both the regional and national levels.

He has therefore called on his fellow assembly members to give him their mandate, promising to work closely with them to advance the interests of the association and strengthen its representation.

The NALAG elections are scheduled for Tuesday, November 17, 2026, at the Regional Coordinating Council (RCC) Hall in Sefwi Wiawso.
