The New Patriotic Party (NPP) has announced that it will open nominations for its 2028 flagbearer position on Tuesday, July 29, 2025.
This marks the beginning of a critical phase in the selection process ahead of the party’s presidential primaries, scheduled for January 31, 2026.
The party’s National Organiser, Henry Nana Boakye, known as Nana B, confirmed during an appearance on Asempa FM’s Ekosii Sen that nominations would open on the stated date, in fulfillment of constitutional requirements mandating at least six months’ notice ahead of the primaries.
Several prominent party figures have already publicly signaled their intent to contest, including Dr. Yaw Osei Adutwum (former Education Minister and MP for Bosomtwe), Bryan Acheampong (MP for Abetifi), Kennedy Agyapong (former MP for Assin Central), and former party General Secretary Kwabena Agyepong.
Though yet to formally declare, Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, former Vice President and the NPP’s flagbearer in the 2024 election, is widely considered the frontrunner.
