The New Patriotic Party (NPP) has announced plans to hold a National Thanksgiving Service following the successful conduct of its presidential primary on January 31.
The internal election saw former Vice President and the party’s 2024 flagbearer, Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, win with 56.48 per cent of the votes. Party officials described the process as peaceful, credible, and transparent.
In a statement issued on Monday, February 9, the NPP said the thanksgiving activities aim to express gratitude to God for the smooth and orderly conduct of the exercise.
“Following the successful conduct of the New Patriotic Party’s Presidential Primary held on January 31, 2026, the Party will hold a National Thanksgiving Service to express its profound gratitude to the Almighty God for a peaceful and historic exercise,” part of the statement said.
The activities will begin with an Islamic Thanksgiving Prayer Service on Friday, February 13, at the National Mosque in Kanda, followed by an Interdenominational Christian Thanksgiving Service on Sunday, February 22, at the University of Professional Studies, Accra (UPSA) Auditorium.
“The National Thanksgiving Service will be graced by the Party’s Presidential Candidate and will bring together Christian and Muslim clergy, party leaders, current and former Members of Parliament, former Ministers, former CEOs/MDs, MDEs, and other former government appointees,” the statement added.
The NPP noted that the services will also serve as a moment for unity and reflection as the party prepares for the next phase of its political activities.
