Former Mayor of the Kumasi Metropolitan Assembly, Sam Pyne, has said the New Patriotic Party (NPP) is focused on reorganising itself to regain political power in the 2028 general elections.
According to him, recent remarks by the party’s 2024 presidential candidate, Mahamudu Bawumia, should serve as motivation for party members to remain united and committed to rebuilding the NPP.
Speaking on Asempa FM’s Ekosii Sen show, Mr. Pyne said he was encouraged by Dr. Bawumia’s comments during a meeting with NPP Members of Parliament.
“I’m happy with the statement Bawumia made when he met the MPs yesterday. He said we are on the path to regaining power and that should be a call for every NPP member,” he said.
Mr. Pyne noted that the party has moved beyond internal blame following its defeat in the 2024 general elections.
According to him, the NPP has already undertaken internal reviews to identify the causes of the party’s loss and is working to address the challenges.
“Where we have gotten to, we have passed the blame games. We set up committees and investigated why we lost the elections and we are fixing them,” he stated.
He stressed that the party’s attention is now firmly on the future, particularly the 2028 elections and beyond.
“The importance is 2028 and beyond,” he added.
Mr. Pyne further appealed to party supporters to conduct themselves peacefully during the ongoing polling station executive elections within the NPP.
He said unity and peace at the grassroots level would be crucial to the party’s efforts to rebuild and return to power.
“So I urge all party members to be peaceful in the current polling station executive elections so that we rewrite history,” he said.
