Asamoah Boateng Declares Bid for NPP National Chairmanship, Promises Discipline and Unity

Former Minister for Chieftaincy and Religious Affairs, Stephen Asamoah Boateng, has officially announced his candidacy for the National Chairmanship of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), vowing to restore discipline, unity, and a strong organizational structure within the ruling party.

In a statement released on Saturday, Mr. Asamoah Boateng — affectionately known as Asabee — said his decision stems from a lifelong dedication to the growth, stability, and integrity of the NPP and its mission to serve the people of Ghana.

“My fellow patriots, the time has come for me to officially declare my intention to contest for the position of National Chairman of the NPP,” he stated. “I have always been committed to the cause of the party, and I will ensure that we work together as a united family to build a more structured and focused NPP for the good people of Ghana.”

He pledged to usher in “a new era of discipline and structure” within the party, grounded in transparency, teamwork, and effective grassroots engagement. According to him, a disciplined and united NPP is essential to sustaining the party’s legacy and winning the confidence of the Ghanaian electorate in future elections.

Mr. Asamoah Boateng, a seasoned politician and stalwart of the NPP, has held several key government positions, including Minister for Information, Minister for Local Government, Rural Development and Environment, and Minister for Chieftaincy and Religious Affairs.

His declaration marks the beginning of what is expected to be a highly competitive race for the NPP’s top national executive position — one that will shape the party’s leadership structure and strategic direction ahead of upcoming national elections.
