The New Patriotic Party (NPP) has unveiled a groundbreaking "Declaration of Interest or Intent" process for its parliamentary aspirants ahead of the 2028 general elections. General Secretary Justin Kodua Frimpong announced the new guidelines, explaining that the party is embracing innovative approaches to ensure a successful, peaceful, and united election campaign in the upcoming year.
This marks the party's first time implementing an initial expression of interest phase, with applications opening from November 1st to November 10th on the portal ppc.nppghana.org. Aspiring candidates must pay a non-refundable fee of 5,000 Ghana Cedis to submit their declarations. Notably, this move applies to all party members, including sitting Members of Parliament.
While the declaration of intent is a crucial step, it does not permit aspirants to commence campaigning or formally open nominations. The party is also planning capacity-building workshops in the Northern Zone, Middle Zone, and Southern Zone to equip aspirants and stakeholders for the upcoming nomination process.
