About NASARA

NASARA is the Zongo Wing of the NPP with a primary role of mobilizing members for the party within the Zongo Communities of the country. The NASARA was conceived by Alhaji Hussein Maiga and some Muslim patriots like Hajia Meimuna Yakubu (Hajia Fara), Alhaji Rufai, Alhaji Bismi and Alhaji Sadat who got approval from the then National Chairman, Jake Obetsebi Lamptey and the National Executive Committee (NEC) for the creation of NASARA as a club; whose executives were appointed at the constituency level.

In 2018 the constitution of the party was amended to make NASARA a special wing of the party. Now coordinators from the constituency to national levels are elected and deputies appointed to assist the elected coordinators. Abdul Aziz Futah is the current national NASARA coordinator.
