We will conduct a free and fair election — Abankwa assures NPP flagbearers

The Deputy Chairman of the NPP Election Committee, Kwabena Abankwa Yeboah, has assured presidential aspirants of the party of a transparent and fair electoral process in their upcoming internal elections on January 31, 2026.

Mr. Abankwa Yeboah gave this assurance after receiving nomination forms from the first applicant, Kwabena Agyepong, on August 26, 2025.

He confirmed that the committee had received all required documents from the applicant.

“We noticed that there were one or two things which are not developed, and other things, but with that one we will look at it. If there are any shortfalls, we will let you know in the discussion at the back door,” he said.

He also expressed profound gratitude to the applicant for submitting his forms and other required documents.

“I want to thank you for all the guidance, for the opportunity to pick your forms, go through the hectic and the courier tax of running around the country to present the forms today. As the first applicant, I want to wish you well on behalf of the committee.

“As we did the last time, we will make sure that we involve all the parties in the decisions we take. We will create an internal IPAC where you have representatives who will be on the committee, who will lead with us, so that together we will make sure that we build a free, fair, and transparent election,” he added.

Mr. Abankwa Yeboah also called on party members to prioritise peace rather than chaos, stressing the tension currently being witnessed in the party.

“There is a lot of tension in the party, especially leading to the picking and presentation of forms. But I want to say that we cannot lead a party which is disintegrated,” he further stated.
