In the quest of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) to reconcile and unite ahead of the 2028 general elections, Ashanti Regional Chairman of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), Bernard Antwi Boasiako, popularly known as Chairman Wontumi,  says the party is prepared to rally behind its elected presidential candidate

He made the comments after voting at the Manhyia South polling station in the Ashanti Region.

As the campaign drew to a close, the party experienced isolated incidents of tension, with personal exchanges between some contenders and their supporters, sparking worries about internal unity going into the 2028 elections.

Chairman Wontumi, however, is confident that choosing a flagbearer early, while the party is in opposition, will allow sufficient time to mend rifts, strengthen cohesion, and prepare the NPP to return to power.

“We have voted for peace, and we have voted for the future of the NPP,” he said.

“The party has chosen its flagbearer for Ghana, and as delegates can see, the atmosphere is peaceful. Peace will prevail, and there will be victory.”

He added that the party is committed to supporting the eventual winner to restore harmony within its ranks.

“We are going to support him to bring peace into our party. That is the reason for holding early presidential primaries.

"This exercise was not meant to undermine the NPP’s constitution, but to strengthen the party and give us enough time to campaign effectively,” Chairman Wontumi stated.

Balloting in the New Patriotic Party’s (NPP) presidential primaries has come to an end, with delegates across the country voting to choose the party’s flagbearer for the next general elections.

A total of more than 211,000 delegates took part in the polls, which were conducted at 333 voting centres spanning all 275 constituencies nationwide.

Throughout the process, heightened security arrangements were put in place, while party officials closely monitored proceedings to guarantee orderliness.

Across several constituencies, the sorting and compilation of votes are currently in progress, and preliminary results have started filtering in from parts of the country. Party leaders have assured stakeholders of openness and fairness as the process moves forward.
