There was no way John Boadu wasn't going to win - Musah Dankwah

Mussah Dankwah, Executive Director of Global InforAnalytics, voiced confidence that John Boadu would emerge victorious in the New Patriotic Party's (NPP) national chairmanship election. Dankwah pointed to the delegates' focus on selecting a unifying figure, suggesting Boadu was the only candidate capable of bridging divisions within the party.

With Boakye Agyarko and Paul Afoko trailing significantly in the vote count, Boadu's 2888 votes secured his position as the new National Chairman. The NPP's National Delegates Conference in Kumasi on October 3, 2026, saw over 7,000 delegates electing new officers, including Boadu's coalition with former Energy Minister Boakye Agyarko, who withdrew from the race and endorsed Boadu's candidacy. Justin Frimpong Kodua retained his role as General Secretary after being re-elected.
