Bryan Acheampong Confidently Challenges NPP Flagbearer Race Establishment Fears

Dr. Bryan Acheampong, a contender for the New Patriotic Party (NPP) presidential nomination, recently expressed confidence about the upcoming primaries. On October 15, he addressed the media, dismissing concerns regarding the potential influence of an established political elite.

Bryan Acheampong’s Stance on NPP Establishment Influence

During his media briefing, Dr. Acheampong stated that the party’s delegates hold the true power in determining the nomination outcome. He emphasized, “It is the delegates who will ultimately decide” the future leader of the NPP.

Delegates Over Establishment

Dr. Acheampong reassured supporters that the so-called establishment within the NPP is not a significant factor in the primaries. He pointed out that the national executives represent only a fraction of the overall voting body.

Estimated total delegates: 250,000
National executives: 17 members
Constituency executives: approximately 5,000

“National executives are just a small part of the whole,” he remarked, indicating that their limited numbers do not dictate the final decision. He highlighted his long-standing experience within the party, stating that the influence of any small group cannot sway the will of the larger delegate base.

Outlook for the 2026 Primaries

With the NPP set to select its next presidential candidate on January 31, 2026, Dr. Acheampong remains optimistic about a fair and transparent electoral process. He underscored the importance of a solid campaign, insisting that only the delegates will determine the outcome.

As he gears up for the primaries, Dr. Acheampong is focused on ensuring that every delegate’s voice is heard, free from external influences. His commitment is clear: “Nothing – except the delegates – can influence their way.”

This declaration reaffirms Dr. Acheampong’s position as a serious contender in the NPP flagbearer race, positioning himself as a candidate ready to represent the collective will of the party’s base.
