The New Patriotic Party (NPP) Presidential Elections Committee has announced plans to sign a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU), also known as a Peace Pact, with the five presidential aspirants ahead of the party’s primaries scheduled for January 31, 2026.
At a press conference in Accra on Thursday, the Committee’s Chairman, Joseph Osei-Owusu, underscored the need to promote unity and transparency throughout the electoral process.
He disclosed that the Committee would make available a provisional voter register album to all aspirants on November 13, 2025, which will later be exhibited at voting centers across the country.
Mr Osei-Owusu outlined a series of measures to guarantee a credible and inclusive process, including consultations with former Presidents, the Party’s Council of Elders, the Electoral Commission, and the Ghana Police Service.
He added that bi-weekly meetings would be held with accredited representatives of the aspirants to resolve concerns and ensure continuous communication.
The former Bekwai MP and First Deputy Speaker of Parliament urged party supporters, stakeholders, and media outlets to exercise restraint and refrain from spreading unverified information that could erode confidence in the process.
He reaffirmed the Committee’s commitment to delivering a free, fair, and transparent election, noting that the Peace Pact would bind all aspirants to uphold the integrity of the contest and preserve party unity.
The aspirants set to sign the pact are Kennedy Ohene Agyapong, Dr Bryan Acheampong, Dr Mahamudu Bawumia, Dr Yaw Osei Adutwum, and Kwabena Agyei-Agyepong.
