The New Patriotic Party (NPP) leadership has ordered that until formal nominations are opened, members and prospective candidates are not permitted to participate in internal campaigning or solicit support for party posts.

The NPP underlined that the action is a part of its efforts to maintain fairness and integrity in its internal electoral processes in a statement released on Wednesday, May 14, and signed by Justin Kodua Frimpong, the Party's general secretary.

According to the NPP, any premature engagement with party executives or structures undermines the authority of the party's organs and risks disrupting ongoing strategic efforts aimed at repositioning the party for victory in the general elections of 2028. "We therefore urge all members, supporters, and stakeholders to fully cooperate with this directive and refrain from any activities that could compromise party unity or the integrity of our processes," the statement read.

The party promised its members a fair, inclusive, and transparent nomination process and that they would receive regular updates as soon as the nominations were formally opened.
