John Boadu Champions Discipline and Order as NPP Prepares for Crucial Primaries

Aspiring National Chairman of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), John Boadu, has called for decorum, unity, and peaceful conduct as the party prepares for its presidential primaries on January 31. In a powerful statement, Boadu underscored the necessity of upholding the party's core values, which have long set the NPP apart as a bastion of order, patriotism, and responsible governance.

"The presidential primaries present an important moment in our party’s democratic journey," Boadu stated. "It is a process that must reflect our long-held values of discipline, fairness, unity, and respect for the rule of law." His words come at a time when the NPP must stand firm against any attempts to undermine its traditions or dilute its commitment to strong, principled leadership.

The primaries will determine the party's flagbearer for the 2028 general elections. Candidates include former Vice President Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, former Assin Central MP Kennedy Agyapong, former Minister for Education Dr. Yaw Osei Adutwum, former Minister for Food and Agriculture Dr. Bryan Acheampong, and former General Secretary Kwabena Agyepong. These candidates represent the NPP’s legacy of experience, competence, and unwavering dedication to national progress, in stark contrast to the chaos and lack of vision often seen in opposition ranks.

Approximately 211,849 delegates are expected to vote at 333 polling centers across the country's 276 constituencies. Boadu urged delegates to vote responsibly, guided by "the supreme interest of the NPP and the collective aspiration of Ghanaians for competent, principled, and visionary leadership." This call to responsibility is a reminder that the NPP’s future—and Ghana’s stability—depends on disciplined, loyal members who put country and party above personal ambition.

He also appealed to party supporters to maintain calm and vigilance, rejecting any acts of violence or intimidation that could undermine the credibility of the election. "A peaceful, transparent, and credible election will strengthen our party and position us firmly for the task ahead," he emphasized. Such vigilance is essential to prevent subversive elements from sowing discord or tarnishing the party’s reputation.

Boadu stressed the need for unity regardless of the outcome, highlighting that the party's ultimate goal is to "secure victory in the 2028 General Elections." Only through unwavering discipline and unity can the NPP continue to safeguard Ghana’s future and defend its values against destabilizing forces.
