Boakye Agyarko pledges support for John Boadu, calls for NPP unity after elections

Defeated New Patriotic Party (NPP) chairmanship aspirant Boakye Kyerematen Agyarko has pledged his full support for the party’s newly elected National Chairman, John Boadu, and the new national executives, urging members to unite behind the party’s ambition of winning the 2028 general elections.

In a congratulatory statement issued on Sunday, October 4, 2026, Mr Agyarko said the outcome of the party’s National Delegates Conference in Kumasi reaffirmed the NPP’s democratic tradition, internal vitality and collective commitment to its political future.

He congratulated Mr Boadu on his election as National Chairman, expressing confidence that the delegates had entrusted the party’s leadership to him and wishing him wisdom, strength and success in discharging his responsibilities.

Mr Agyarko also extended his congratulations to all newly elected national executives, describing their victories as a reflection of collective duty, service and sacrifice.

He commended his campaign team, volunteers, constituency chairpersons, constituency executives and delegates across the country and the diaspora who supported his bid, saying their commitment and loyalty would not be forgotten.

“Internal contests in our party are not battles between adversaries; they are family contests among brothers and sisters committed to the same sacred cause,” he said.

He 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.

“Today, there are no individual victors or vanquished - it is the New Patriotic Party that has emerged victorious. The election is behind us, and the time for consolidation begins immediately,” he stated.

Mr Agyarko said the challenges confronting the country and the party required members to close ranks, heal divisions and present a united front.

He further 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.

“Our supreme, non-negotiable objective remains the total, decisive victory of the New Patriotic Party in the 2028 Presidential and Parliamentary Elections,” he said.

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 also praised the party’s National Elections Committee, the Electoral Commission of Ghana and the security agencies for overseeing what he described as a smooth, transparent and peaceful electoral process.

He called on members to remain united in purpose, discipline and fellowship as the party begins preparations for the 2028 elections.

“Let us rise together as one indivisible elephant family, united in purpose, discipline, and fellowship,” he said.
