He consequently backed former NPP National Chairman Awentami Paul Afoko for the National Chairmanship position, arguing that his election could help place the party on a new trajectory.

Political Science lecturer at the Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology (KNUST), Dr Kwasi Amakye-Boateng, has argued that the New Patriotic Party (NPP) has “extra work to do” to present a convincing alternative to the National Democratic Congress (NDC) ahead of the 2028 elections.

He said President Mahama had performed creditably on inflation and the exchange rate, underscoring the need for strong leadership within the NPP to make the party attractive to Ghanaians ahead of the next general election.
