Nominations for the position of the party’s presidential candidate officially open today, Tuesday, July 29, 2025, and will close on Thursday, August 28, 2025.

Per the guidelines, any party member seeking to contest must first obtain a nomination form after paying a non-refundable nomination fee of GH¢100,000. Payment must be made via Bankers’ Draft addressed to the New Patriotic Party Headquarters, Accra.

After successfully acquiring the NPP nomination forms, aspirants are required to pay a filing fee of GH¢500,000, also via banker’s draft, payable to the New Patriotic Party National Headquarters.

In addition to these fees, the notice further states that each aspiring presidential candidate “shall be required to pay a Development Fee as determined by the National Council.” However, the specific amount for this Development Fee was not disclosed in the notice.

The Presidential Primary, which will be the National Congress to elect the party’s flagbearer for the 2028 general elections, is scheduled to be held on Saturday, January 31, 2026.

The vetting of all submitted applications is slated to take place between September 15 and September 22, 2025.

Following the vetting, the party’s National Council is expected to receive and deliberate on the vetting committee’s recommendations on September 29, 2025.

Between September 30 and October 3, 2025, any aspirants with concerns about the vetting outcomes will be allowed to file petitions.

After resolving any disputes, a joint meeting of the National Executive Committee and the National Council will convene later in October 2025 to finalise arrangements.

The official publication of nominees is scheduled for October 8, followed by balloting for positions on the presidential primary ballot on October 10.

The Notice of Poll, a key statutory requirement ahead of any internal election, will be published on October 17, 2025.
