The New Patriotic Party (NPP) has begun regrouping with full force for a political comeback in 2028.
According to the party’s Deputy General Secretary, Haruna Mohammed, the party is not just reflecting but preparing to fight and take back power from what he described as “this very incompetent government.”
Appearing on Joy News' PM Express on Wednesday, April 16, Haruna Mohammed declared, “We are very focused. We are very determined. We are very sure.
"Based on the discussions that we had before the presentation of the report, we are prepared to fight on in 2028.”
He revealed that the party’s National Council met to receive a report from a committee chaired by Professor Mike Ocquaye.
That committee had been tasked with two missions: to investigate the reasons behind the party’s defeat in the 2024 elections and to recommend structural reforms.
“You remember that on the second of January, we had a National Council. An ad hoc committee was set up to look at two issues. One is to look at the reasons why we lost in the 2024 general elections. And the second is to look at possible amendments and restructuring of the party,” he explained.
The committee was given three months. “April 16 was the day for the submission of the report of Professor Mike Ocquaye,” he said.
“The National Council, before then, had a National Executive Committee meeting to deliberate on other matters. Then we proceeded to the Council, where this report was submitted.”
According to Haruna Mohammed, the meeting was charged with energy and purpose.
“Knowing the NPP from wherever we have come from, the members at National Council were very focused, were very determined and very sure,” he said.
“It showed how resilient and prepared we are to wrestle power from this very incompetent government.”
He was unapologetic in his language, describing the current administration in no uncertain terms.
“This incompetent government must be replaced. We are ready. The NPP is coming back,” he said.
For him, the party’s revival is rooted in tradition.
“The move of the people did stand with the tradition and history of the New Patriotic Party,” he emphasised.
Haruna Mohammed signalled that the NPP is preparing for a fierce return to power, stressing the tone from the party’s leadership is shifting from reflection to confrontation.
“We know where we fell. We know what went wrong. And now we are going to rise again,” he said.
