Spokesperson for the Bryan Acheampong campaign, Pius Enam Hadzide, has stated that the NPP flagbearer hopeful does not support the use of fake or procured endorsements from Members of Parliament (MPs) in the party’s internal race.
According to Mr. Hadzide, open endorsements often promote personal ambitions over the collective interests of the party and risk sowing division among members.
“Bryan Acheampong is deliberate about not creating division based on fake and procured endorsements. Open endorsements often occur, but they tend to serve personal interests rather than the collective interests of the party, which can lead to division. If someone has something to say, they should personally meet with the delegates instead of using national radio or TV to publicly declare support for someone.
“The delegates are smart; they understand that some people make open endorsements in pursuit of political appointments. The people want empowerment at the local level. If Bryan Acheampong had wanted open endorsements, he would have received many. Some individuals even call Bryan before making public endorsements, which leads us to believe that many of these endorsements are not genuine,” he said in an interview on Asempa FM’s Ekosii Sen show.
Mr. Hadzide urged party leaders to refrain from public displays of bias and instead engage directly with delegates, warning that disunity could derail the NPP’s chances of victory in the 2028 elections.
“I personally wish that some of our leaders would refrain from openly displaying bias and instead engage directly with the delegates. This approach would help prevent mistrust or suspicion, which could lead to division and hinder our unity and victory. Ultimately, the person who wins the flagbearer position will not be able to accomplish the task alone; we will all need to work together,” he noted.
The NPP is set to hold its presidential primaries in January 2026.
