The Ashanti Regional Council of Elders of the (NPP) has issued a strong call for decorum and a focus on substantive issues in the ongoing campaign for the party's 2028 presidential flagbearer race.

Expressing concern over what they described as "grave developments" in the campaign, including pronouncements and utterances by some aspirants and their teams, the elders urged a more respectful and unified approach.

In a press statement signed by Victor Owusu, the council's secretary, several "no-go areas" for campaigners were outlined.

These include the use of insulting language, sectional campaigning, defamatory attacks, and any actions that could harm the party or provide ammunition to opponents ahead of the 2028 elections.
