Member of Parliament for Abetifi, Dr. Bryan Acheampong, has announced his intention to contest the New Patriotic Party’s (NPP) flagbearer position ahead of the 2028 elections.
He told journalists after the June 24 meeting that his decision was influenced by an exploratory team that spent a month assessing the sentiments of NPP delegates.
“A decision has been made that I will contest when the party opens nominations, but to do that, as a product of the church, it will be a disappointment per my tradition, if the moderator of the church hears it for the first time on the radio,” he said.
According to him, the feedback expressed a need for his expertise as a leader whose qualities, he believes, align with the party’s.
“So, before a formal announcement is made, I thought it wise to come and inform the moderator of the Presbyterian Church that this is what I have set out to do.”
