Boakye Kyerematen Agyarko, a defeated New Patriotic Party (NPP) chairmanship aspirant, has pledged his full support for the party's newly elected National Chairman, John Boadu, and the new national executives. In a congratulatory statement on October 4, 2026, Mr Agyarko urged members to unite behind the party's ambition of winning the 2028 general elections. He expressed confidence that the delegates had entrusted the party's leadership to John Boadu and wished him wisdom, strength, and success.
Mr Agyarko congratulated Mr Boadu on his election as National Chairman, describing the outcome of the party's National Delegates Conference in Kumasi as a reaffirmation of the NPP's democratic tradition, internal vitality, and collective commitment to its political future. He also extended his congratulations to all newly elected national executives, describing their victories as a reflection of collective duty, service, and sacrifice.
The defeated chairmanship aspirant commended his campaign team, volunteers, constituency chairpersons, constituency executives, and delegates across the country and the diaspora who supported his bid. He said their commitment and loyalty would not be forgotten. Mr Agyarko emphasized that internal contests in the party are not battles between adversaries but family contests among brothers and sisters committed to the same sacred cause.
Mr Agyarko stressed that the party must now move beyond the contest and focus on consolidating its ranks, insisting that there should be no individual winners or losers following the elections. He stated that today, there are no individual victors or vanquished - it is the New Patriotic Party that has emerged victorious. The election is behind them, and the time for consolidation begins immediately.
The challenges confronting Ghana and the party require members to close ranks, heal divisions, and present a united front. Mr Agyarko declared his readiness to support Mr Boadu, the newly elected National Executive Committee, and the party's flagbearer, Dr Mahamudu Bawumia, as the NPP prepares for the next general elections. He emphasized that their supreme, non-negotiable objective remains the total, decisive victory of the New Patriotic Party in the 2028 Presidential and Parliamentary Elections.
Mr Agyarko pledged to work closely with the party's leadership and grassroots supporters across all 16 regions to secure victory and return the NPP to government. He praised the party's National Elections Committee, the Electoral Commission of Ghana, and the security agencies for overseeing a smooth, transparent, and peaceful electoral process.
Finally, Mr Agyarko called on members to remain united in purpose, discipline, and fellowship as the party begins preparations for the 2028 elections. He urged them to rise together as one indivisible elephant family, united in purpose, discipline, and fellowship.
