The national leadership of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) has pledged its commitment to upholding transparency, fairness and internal democracy in all its processes.
“Leadership will continue to ensure that every stage of our electoral activities reflects the highest standards of integrity and credibility,” it said.
Polling station albums
A statement issued in Accra and signed by its General Secretary, Justin Kodua Frimpong, stated that no individual, irrespective of rank or position, had a monopoly or unilateral control over the compilation of polling station albums.
“For the avoidance of doubt, the compilation of the polling station album strictly adheres to established compliance procedures.
“The National Secretariat will, at the appropriate time, issue clear and transparent guidelines, protocols and procedures designed to safeguard integrity, credibility and fairness at every stage of the process,” it stated.
The statement, therefore, assured all stakeholders, particularly polling station executives across the country, that any pronouncements to the contrary should be disregarded and treated with the utmost contempt they deserve.
Presidential primary
On statements by some leading members of the party that the presidential primaries was fixed on January 31, 2026, to favour a particular aspirant, it said the statement was unfounded.
It noted that public pronouncements by its Ashanti Regional Chairman, Bernard Antwi Boasiako, that the party’s presidential primaries on January 31, 2026, was calculated to favour a particular candidate, were false.
It explained that the National Council exhaustively deliberated and took the decision in the party’s supreme and strategic interest.
“Given the calibre of the members of the National Council, no individual can manipulate or influence a decision in his or her favour.
“The decision to hold an early congress is intended solely to provide the party with sufficient time and strategic advantage to reorganise, reposition and recapture power in 2028,” it stated.
