Afoko to file nomination for NPP National Chairmanship on Tuesday

Former NPP National Chairman Paul Awentami Afoko is set to file his nomination for the party's upcoming National Chairmanship race on Tuesday, August 25, 2026. This step is part of the party's extended nomination window, which began on August 18. Afoko, who has declared his candidacy publicly since July 2026, will complete the formal filing process, allowing him to progress through the remaining stages of the NPP's national officer election calendar.

The filing comes amidst a competitive field, as the NPP's National Officers Elections Committee has extended the deadline from August 27 to August 29 to accommodate numerous aspirants vying for various positions. Afoko's campaign is built around his "3R Agenda" — Reunite, Rebuild and Recapture — emphasizing the need for internal healing, structural improvement, and a renewed push for the presidency in 2028.

Following his filing, Afoko will undergo a vetting process from August 31 to September 3, with results expected on September 5. Subsequent stages include appeals, delegate voting, and the final selection of the party's National Chairman.
