A group of young party executives have picked up nomination forms on behalf of Dr Bryan Acheampong for him to contest in the New Patriotic Partys (NPP) flagbearership race.
The youthful executives visited the partys national headquarters in Accra to complete the formalities before presenting the forms to Carlos Kingsley Ahenkorah, former Member of Parliament for Tema West and Campaign Manager for the Bryan Acheampong Campaign.
Receiving the forms at the campaign office, Mr Ahenkorah described the gesture as a significant display of trust and commitment to Dr Acheampongs leadership ambitions.
This is not just about picking forms; it is about the future of the NPP and the future of Ghana, he told the group. When the youth take this initiative, it shows that they believe in a leader who can unite our party, deliver on his promises, and secure our electoral victory in 2028.
He thanked them for their support and stressed that the campaign would focus on unity, competence, and delivering results for both party and country.
Some members of the group said they were inspired by Dr Acheampongs achievements in public service, citing his work in the agriculture sector and his reputation for discipline and effective leadership. They also expressed confidence in his skills and strategic vision to lead the party to victory in the next general election.
The presentation of the forms officially marks the beginning of Dr Acheampongs journey in the NPPs internal race, which is expected to be one of the most competitive in the partys history.
Several prominent figures are expected to join the contest, setting the stage for an intense campaign in the months ahead. Party insiders say the youth-led move boosts Dr Acheampongs early momentum, particularly among grassroots members who play a decisive role in internal elections.
Political observers note that such mobilisation sends a strong signal of a candidates organisational strength and appeal within the party base.
With the nomination process now underway, attention will turn to how each contender positions themselves to win the confidence of delegates ahead of the partys primaries in January 2026.
