THE regent of Kwabeng in the Eastern Region, Nana Kofi Adjei Twinin, has been elected as the new President of the Ghana Tourism Federation (GHATOF).
Nana Twinin, who is also the Akyempemhene of Kwabeng, was elected together with other new executive members to run the affairs of the association for the next two years.
The new president contested the position on the ticket of the Ghana Hotels Association, polling 16 votes to beat Mr Nkunu Akyea of the Tour Guides Association, who had 13 votes.
A hotelier by profession, Nana Adjei Twinin is the Managing Director of the Mac Dic Royal Plaza Hotel and the Mac Dick Hotel, both at Koforidua.
Other members of the newly elected executive included Mr David Nana Anim, as the vice president and Mrs Edith Addo, as treasurer.
The two, who served under the previous administration, were elected unopposed.
Nana Anim stood as the former president of the Car Rentals Association of Ghana whilst Mrs Addo, who is the proprietress of Crab House Restaurant at Kaneshie, stood on the ticket of the Indigenous Caterers Association.
The new executive of GHATOF will officially be sworn in today, March 4.
The event drew observers from the Ministry of Tourism and the Ghana Tourist Board, among other organisations.
