At the NPP's National Delegates Conference in Kumasi, Afenyo-Markin pledged that the party would intensify scrutiny of the government, defend democratic freedoms, and seek accountability from President John Mahama and his administration. He accused the government of becoming intolerant of criticism, citing the arrests and detention of several opposition figures, including Chairman Wuntumi, Kwame Asare-Obeng, and Nana Agyei Baffour Awuah.

He urged party members to rebuild the NPP and work to regain the confidence of voters ahead of the 2028 election.",
