Aspiring National Chairman Boakye Agyarko of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) has congratulated John Boadu on his recent election victory. Boadu secured 2,888 votes in the National Delegates Conference in Kumasi, surpassing Agyarko, who received 2,408 votes. Former National Chairman Paul Afoko came in third with 790 votes, while Sammy Crabbe received 41 votes.

Agyarko praised the NPP's democratic tradition, stating that the delegates' verdict must now be respected as they move forward. He extended his congratulations to Boadu, wishing him wisdom, strength, and success in leading the party. Agyarko also acknowledged the achievements of the newly elected national executives, calling their victories a collective call to duty and service.

He expressed particular appreciation for the commitment and sacrifices of his campaign team, constituency executives, and delegates. Agyarko urged members to put aside internal contestations and unite around the party's future, emphasizing that internal elections should not permanently divide the NPP. He stressed that the conclusion of the elections should mark a period of consolidation rather than continued rivalry.

Agyarko pledged his support to Boadu and Dr Mahamudu Bawumia, the party's flagbearer, as they prepare for the 2028 Presidential and Parliamentary Elections. He commended the NPP National Elections Committee, the Electoral Commission, and the security services for a smooth, transparent, and peaceful electoral process.
