Prince Sefah Named Spokesperson for NPP’s Communication, Technology and Digital Economy Sector Committee
Former GIFEC CEO and NCA Deputy DG takes on communications role ahead of policy push in tech and digital economy
Prince Sefah, former Chief Executive Officer of the Ghana Investment Fund for Electronic Communications (GIFEC) and former Deputy Director-General of the National Communications Authority (NCA), has been appointed spokesperson for the New Patriotic Party’s Communication, Technology and Digital Economy Sector Committee.
The appointment is part of the NPP’s post-2024 restructuring as the party positions itself to win back power in the 2028 general election after losing in 2024. Sefah will lead public engagement on policy matters spanning telecoms, ICT infrastructure, digital services, and Ghana’s broader digital economy agenda.
Sefah brings over a decade of experience in Ghana’s communications and digital policy space. During his tenure at GIFEC, he oversaw programs aimed at expanding connectivity to underserved and rural communities, including the deployment of ICT centers and support for digital literacy initiatives. At the NCA, he served as Deputy Director-General, where he was involved in regulatory oversight, spectrum management, and stakeholder engagement across the telecoms sector.
In his new role, Sefah is expected to articulate the party’s position on ongoing developments in the sector, respond to policy debates, and engage industry stakeholders, civil society, and the public on the NPP’s vision for a digitally driven economy. The goal is to translate that vision into a clear message that resonates with voters ahead of 2028.
The Communication, Technology and Digital Economy Sector Committee is one of several policy committees set up by the NPP to sharpen its platform and public messaging on key economic areas. With Ghana’s digital economy projected to grow as mobile penetration, fintech, and e-government services expand, the sector has become a focal point in the party’s strategy to reconnect with voters and rebuild its base.
Sefah’s appointment signals the party’s intent to center experienced technical and regulatory voices in its communications strategy as it prepares for the next electoral cycle.
