NPP Delegates Conference to proceed despite petition – Osei-Owusu

Chairman of the National Planning Committee for the New Patriotic Party (NPP), Joseph Osei-Owusu, has affirmed that the party’s 2025 National Annual Delegates Conference will proceed as scheduled on Saturday, 19 July, at the University of Ghana Sports Stadium in Legon.

His assurance comes in response to a petition submitted by some party members calling for a change in the conference date.

Speaking to journalists, Mr. Osei-Owusu confirmed that the petition had been reviewed by the party’s National Council. However, after careful deliberation, the leadership resolved to maintain the original date.

“There’s a petition that the date for the conference should be changed,” Mr. Osei-Owusu said. “The National Council, after considering it, decided that we should continue. In view of the preparations we have made and the commitments we have undertaken, we should continue with the conference as already announced.”

Despite dissent over timing, party leadership maintains that continuity and adherence to prior arrangements are essential, especially considering the logistical and financial groundwork already laid.
