The Minority Leader in Parliament, Alexander Kwamina Afenyo-Markin, has urged members of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) to remain resilient and united.

In a Christmas message to Ghanaians, he emphasised that setbacks are temporary.

“The elephant may stumble, but it never stays down forever,” he said.

He also called on aspirants for the party’s flagbearer position to campaign with decorum, humility, and respect.

“Respect for one another and for our party. Let our conduct inspire confidence,” he added.

Afenyo-Markin reminded members that the party’s message should offer hope and signal readiness for power.

“There should be life after January 31, 2026. Let us reflect on this even during this Christmas season. Fellow patriots, this party has risen before, and it shall rise again. One year down already; one year is gone,” he noted.

The party has slated January 31, 2026, for its presidential primary.
