Patrick Boamah calls for unity in NPP ahead of 2028 elections

Member of Parliament for Okaikwei Central, Patrick Yaw Boamah, has called for discipline, reorganisation, and unity within the New Patriotic Party (NPP) as the party prepares for its presidential primaries and subsequently the 2028 general election.

In a post on X formerly Twitter on Thursday evening, June 20, the lawmaker emphasised the need for a stronger, more cohesive party structure if the NPP is to reclaim power in the next general elections.

“The New Patriotic Party (NPP) needs a strong party, well organised and disciplined to produce a President, not just a Flagbearer,” he said.

Boamah’s comments come at a time when the party is still reeling from its defeat in the 2024 general elections. Several party members and political observers have since called for deep reflection and restructuring ahead of the next electoral cycle.

The NPP is gearing up for a heated presidential primary scheduled for January 31, 2026, with multiple high-profile contenders expected to contest. Among them are Former Vice President, Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, former Education Minister, Dr. Yaw Osei Adutwum, former Agric Minister, Dr. Bryan Acheampong, and outspoken former Assin Central MP, Kennedy Agyapong.

Meanwhile, Kwasi Kwarteng, a former spokesperson for the Ministry of Education, has suggested that Patrick Boamah may be interested in joining the flagbearer race, although the MP is yet to make a formal declaration.
