The New Patriotic Party (NPP) has officially scheduled its presidential primaries for Saturday, 31st January 2026.
The decision was taken at a crucial meeting of the party’s National Executive Committee (NEC) held on Tuesday, 17th June 2025.
This announcement by the party’s General Secretary, Justin Frimpong Kodua, sets the stage for a decisive contest to elect the party’s flagbearer for the 2028 general elections.
“The Committee also spoke about the time for our presidential primaries. And again, the Committee agrees that that decision does not warrant amendment of our Constitution. And the National Council today also made the decision that the date for our presidential primaries is set for January 31, 2026. That will be the date that we shall hold our presidential primaries.
With growing anticipation within the party’s rank and file, the primary is expected to attract significant interest from both longstanding members and new contenders seeking to lead the NPP into the next electoral cycle.
Party officials have indicated that nomination guidelines, timelines for campaign activities, and the code of conduct for aspirants will be released in the coming weeks.
