In Ghana, the big political decision happening right now is the NPP\u2019s national executive elections.<\/p>\n
On Saturday, October 3, 2026, the New Patriotic Party (NPP) held its National Delegates Conference at the Baba Yara Sports Stadium in Kumasi. Over 7,000 delegates voted to elect the party\u2019s new national leadership (National Chairperson, General Secretary, Vice Chairpersons, Organiser, etc.).<\/p>\n
This is a key internal election that will shape the party\u2019s direction and organisation as it prepares for the 2028 general elections. Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia is already the party\u2019s flagbearer for 2028 (he won the presidential primary earlier in 2026), so the new executives will work with him and the party structures going forward.<\/p>\n
The chairmanship race was especially closely watched, with candidates including John Boadu, Sammy Crabbe, Paul Afoko, and Boakye Agyarko among the contenders.<\/p>\n
National Chairman: John Boadu (former General Secretary) \u2013 won with nearly 50% of the votes.<\/p>\n
\u2022\u00a0 National Women\u2019s Organiser: Hawa Koomson<\/p>\n
\u2022\u00a0 National Treasurer: Alfred Thompson<\/p>\n
\u2022\u00a0 National Youth Organiser: Abanga (Fuseini Yakubu Abanga)<\/p>\n
\u2022\u00a0 National Organiser: Titus Glover (Daniel Nii Kwartei Titus Glover)<\/p>\n
\u2022\u00a0 Nasara Coordinator: Ali Suraj<\/p>\n
The Electoral Commission supervised the polls. Full official tallies for all positions (including General Secretary and the three Vice Chairpersons) were still being collated and declared in the early hours of 4 October, but Boadu\u2019s victory as National Chairman has been widely confirmed.<\/p>\n
This new leadership team will work with flagbearer Dr Mahamudu Bawumia as the NPP reorganises for the 2028 general election.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
