Nii Maale Adjei won the position of first Vice Chairman, Nii Amon Hammond and Nii Adjah Bernasko were unopposed for the positions of Secretary and Second Vice Chairman.

Mr Obodai Torgbor polled 258 votes to beat Mr Jakman Markenzel for the position of Assistant Secretary, Mr Emmanuel Tetteh also beat other three contestant to become the Organizer, whilst the Youth Organizer went to Nana Bruce who beat his sole contestant Mr Joseph Fiator with 14 votes difference.
