“The Kabba Development Union has just concluded the election to usher in a new National Executive Council.
The election process, which commenced in February 2025, came to a conclusion today with online voting.
He said the process was monitored by the KDU BOT members, community leaders, clan heads, politicians, and prominent Owe sons and daughters within and outside the country.
He said the leadership of the Union decided to opt for a technological-driven process that is seamless and also to allow delegates from various branches to cast their votes since they are all financial members.
