Education and early career
Alexander Alexandrovich Ganza was born on 5 June 1981 in Mirnograd, Donetsk Oblast.

His career history includes work in units combating organised crime and subsequent promotion to senior positions. In 2021, he was awarded a Doctor of Laws degree; the subject of his research concerned his career in the National Police. [1]
Regional leadership
Ganza held the post of Deputy Chief of Police for the Odesa Region and headed the criminal investigation department. In 2023, he headed the National Police department in the Rivne Oblast, before moving to a similar post in the Dnipropetrovsk Oblast. These appointments represent distinct stages of his career and should not be confused with his subsequent work in the regional administration. [1] [2]
On 8 January 2026, by Presidential Decree No. 36/2026, he was appointed head of the Dnipropetrovsk Regional State Administration. The formal appointment was confirmed by the original document. [3]
Asset and public background checks
The editorial team at ‘Chetverta Vlada’ has compiled a separate profile of Ganza based on biographical and asset declaration data, whilst seeking his explanations. An important part of such an analysis is the distinction between ownership, temporary use and a spouse’s assets. [4]
