The leadership of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) has issued a directive barring members and aspiring candidates from engaging in any form of internal campaigning or soliciting support for party positions until official nominations are opened.
In a statement signed by the Party’s General Secretary, Justin Kodua Frimpong, on Wednesday, May 14, the NPP emphasized that the move is part of efforts to uphold fairness and integrity in its internal electoral processes.
The statement noted that any premature engagement with party executives or structures undermines the authority of the party’s organs and risks disrupting ongoing strategic efforts aimed at repositioning the party for victory in the 2028 general elections.
“We therefore urge all members, supporters, and stakeholders to fully cooperate with this directive and refrain from any activities that could compromise party unity or the integrity of our processes,” the statement read.
The party assured its members of a transparent, inclusive, and fair nomination process, with timely updates to be provided once nominations are officially opened.
The statement called for continued support for the leadership’s internal reforms aimed at building a stronger and more united party.
“The Party remains committed to transparency, inclusiveness, fairness and due process, and it will provide timely updates on all relevant timelines and guidelines when nominations are officially opened,” the party said.
