Former National Chairman of the New Patriotic Party Awentami Paul Afoko has declared that the NPP can return to government in 2028 if he is elected as National Chairman. He told delegates during his campaign tour that reuniting the party and rebuilding grassroots structures remain the surest path to victory. His comments have sparked fresh debate within the party.
According to Paul Afoko, the NPP needs healing, inclusion and strong organization from polling station to national level to win the 2028 general election. He said his leadership will focus on reconciliation of aggrieved members and restoring discipline and unity that historically made the party formidable in national contests.
Afoko who previously served as National Chairman before his suspension years ago is now seeking a comeback with a message centred on experience and reform. He argued that without a united front, the party will struggle to convince floating voters and energize its base across all 16 regions of Ghana.
The NPP national chairmanship is a powerful position responsible for overall administration, coordination of party activities and supervision of regional and constituency executives. Evergreen political structure in Ghana shows that parties that maintain active polling station executives and regular grassroots engagements tend to perform better during presidential and parliamentary elections. Party funding, internal democracy and conflict resolution mechanisms also shape electoral fortunes.
Paul Afoko campaign message places emphasis on reviving party branches, strengthening communication and ensuring fair treatment of all factions. Political observers say his bid will test whether delegates prefer a familiar figure promising unity or new leadership promising a break from past internal disputes ahead of the crucial 2028 contest.
