NPP warns aspirants premature campaigning could jeopardise eligibility for primaries

The New Patriotic Party (NPP) has warned prospective parliamentary aspirants that campaigning before the party announces its official timetable could jeopardise their eligibility to contest in the parliamentary primaries.

In a statement issued on Sunday, October 11, 2026, and signed by General Secretary Justin Kodua Frimpong, the party said it had received complaints that some prospective candidates had begun campaigning in various constituencies ahead of the official selection process.

The NPP has directed all prospective aspirants, their agents and supporters to immediately stop campaign activities, including mounting posters, billboards and banners, organising rallies and constituency tours, and distributing items or other inducements to delegates and party members.
