General Secretary of NPP, John Boadu General Secretary of NPP, John Boadu

The governing New Patriotic Party (NPP) has settled on 25 April 2020, as date to hold parliamentary primaries in all the 169 constituencies where the party has sitting Members of Parliament to elect its parliamentary candidates for the 2020 general elections.

The party will equally hold its 2020 presidential primaries on the same date.

Ahead of these primaries, the party has cautioned prospective aspirants to desist from all forms of campaign activity until nominations are opened or they risk being disqualified for flouting party directives.

These decisions were taken by the party at a joint National Executive Committee (NEC) and National Council meeting held on Monday, 21 October 2019 at the Alisa Hotel in Accra.

The party will also hold parliamentary primaries in the remaining 'orphan constituencies' that were excluded from the party's nationwide primaries held on 28 September 2019 due to some outstanding matters which the party said have now been resolved.

The primaries for these outstanding constituencies will be held on Saturday, 26 October 2019.
