NPP 'will not rest' until Bawumia becomes president - Okoe Boye

Dr Bernard Okoe Boye, the newly elected New Patriotic Party (NPP) Greater Accra Regional Chairman, expressed his gratitude to constituency executives for their support during the party's recent election. In a Facebook post, Boye stated that the party would not rest until Dr Mahamudu Bawumia becomes President of Ghana. The election, held on August 15 at the WAEC Hall in Tema, saw Boye defeat his closest rival Alfred Boye by a significant margin of 315 votes.

Boye, a former Minister of Health and Member of Parliament, takes over from outgoing Chairman Divine Otoo Agorhom, who had decided not to seek re-election. As the new Regional Chairman, Boye will be tasked with coordinating party activities and mobilizing supporters ahead of the 2028 elections in Greater Accra, where the NPP is working to regain some of the parliamentary seats lost in the 2024 general elections.
