ACCRA – The New Patriotic Party (NPP) has confirmed that its presidential primaries will be held on January 31, 2026. This date was adopted by the party’s National Council, following a proposal from its constitution review committee.
Justin Frimpong Koduah, General Secretary of the NPP, clarified that the timing of these primaries will not require approval from a delegates’ conference, as the National Council has already exercised its mandate in setting the date. He stated, “The date for our presidential primaries is set for January 31, 2026. That will be the date that we shall hold our presidential primaries.” He added that a planning committee has been established in anticipation of a motion for constitutional amendment.
Meanwhile, a nine-member committee, chaired by former Bekwai MP Joseph Osei Owusu, has been tasked with planning the national delegates’ conference scheduled for July 2025. This conference is expected to adopt other recommendations for amending the party’s constitution.
