Party Youth Executives pick Flagbearer forms for Bryan Acheampong

A group of young party executives has picked up nomination forms on behalf of Dr. Bryan Acheampong for the New Patriotic Party’s (NPP) flagbearership race.

The group visited the party’s national headquarters in Accra to complete the formalities before presenting the forms to Carlos Kingsley Ahenkorah, former Member of Parliament for Tema West and Campaign Manager for the Bryan Acheampong Campaign.

Receiving the forms at the campaign office, Mr. Ahenkorah described the gesture as a strong expression of trust and commitment to Dr. Acheampong’s leadership ambitions.

“This is not just about picking forms; it is about the future of the NPP and the future of Ghana,” he told the group. “When the youth take this initiative, it shows that they believe in a leader who can unite our party, deliver on his promises, and secure our electoral victory in 2028.”

He thanked the group and stressed that the campaign would focus on unity, competence, and delivering results for both party and country.

Some members of the delegation said they were inspired by Dr. Acheampong’s achievements in public service, highlighting his work in the agriculture sector and his reputation for discipline and effective leadership. They expressed confidence in his ability to lead the party to victory in the next general elections.

The presentation of the forms marks the official start of Dr. Acheampong’s participation in what is expected to be one of the most competitive internal races in the NPP’s history. Several high-profile contenders are expected to join the race, setting the stage for an intense campaign in the months ahead.

Party insiders say the move by the youth gives Dr. Acheampong early momentum, particularly among grassroots members who hold significant sway in internal elections. Political observers note that such grassroots mobilisation often signals a candidate’s organisational strength and appeal within the party base.

With nominations now open, attention will turn to how each contender positions themselves to win the confidence of delegates ahead of the party’s primaries in January 2026.
