NPP Delegates 1

Delegates at the New Patriotic Party’s (NPP) National Delegates Conference on Saturday, July 19, approved 54 motions aimed at restructuring the party and refining its policies ahead of the 2028 general elections.

Held at the University of Ghana Stadium in Accra, the conference reflected the party’s renewed focus on internal democracy and strategic reform, covering key areas such as constitutional amendments, electoral processes, grassroots mobilisation, governance, and policy direction.

However, delegates decisively rejected two notable constitutional amendment proposals, Motion 17 and Motion 54.

Motion 17 sought to amend Article 7(30) of the NPP Constitution to allow Regional Executive Committees to appoint independent supervisors for polling station and electoral area elections, thereby excluding constituency-level officers from that role.

Delegates opposed the motion, arguing it risked weakening grassroots participation and oversight.

In a similar vein, Motion 54 proposed redefining “youth” within the party as members not above the age of 35, instead of the current 40-year ceiling.

Below is the full list of motions

  • MOTION ONE

    Article 1

    Amend article 1 of the Constitution to include the Party’s Motto, Symbol and Colours.

    [The absence of the Party’s Motto, Symbol and Colours in the Constitution is an obvious omission and ought to be rectified. The Party’s Motto, Symbol and Colours must find expression in the Party’s Constitution.]

    • MOTION TWO

    Article 3(7)

    Amend article 3(7)of the Constitution to give the power to recommend suspension of a Member or an office holder pending disciplinary action against him to the appropriate Disciplinary Committee rather than the Executive Committee.

    [The amendment is necessary to ensure justified suspension of party executives (elected and appointed) by Executive Committees, only upon recommendation by the Disciplinary Committee,  pending disciplinary proceedings against such Officers. It is the Disciplinary Committee that shall recommend suspension, having regard to its preliminary findings.]

    • MOTION THREE

    Article 4(3)(7)

    Amend article 4(3)(7) of the Constitution to allow for a complaint against any Constituency or Regional Officer, whether elected or appointed, to be filed at;  (i) in the case of the Constituency Officer, the Regional Executive Committee and (ii) in the case of the Regional Officer, the National Executive Committee.

    [The amendment seeks to achieve fair and equal treatment or handling of disciplinary matters involving ‘elected officers’ and ‘appointed officers’ who are at the same level of the Party by providing that they should be dealt with by the same Disciplinary Committee.]

    • MOTION FOUR

    Article 5(6)

    Amend article 5(6) of the Constitution to adopt the Electoral Commission of Ghana’s demarcation/cluster of Electoral Areas.

    [The EC’s Electoral Area systems are pre-determined, bereft of controversies and involves more polling stations than the party’s demarcations of Electoral Area. The current provision in the Party’s constitution is that where polling stations under an Electoral Area exceed ten(10), an additional Electoral Area may be created. This lack of certainty and exactitude has triggered misunderstandings in the creation of some Electoral Areas. The adoption of the EC’s Electoral Area system cures any such misunderstanding or perceived mischief.] 

    • MOTION FIVE

    Article 6 –  new provision

    Amend article 6 of the Constitution to provide for an Electoral Area Executive Committee structure made up of five (5) members who shall all be elected, comprising the Electoral Area Chairperson, Secretary, Organiser, Communications Officer and Electoral Affairs Officer.

    [The current system requires limited expansion to allow for increased participation and support in the management of the electoral areas. A 5-member Committee enhances operational capacity and ensures a more inclusive and structured approach to supervising polling station activities.]  

    • MOTION SIX

    Article 6(1)

    Amend article 6(1) of the Constitution to increase the Polling Station Executives from five (5) to seven (7), who are all to be elected, comprising the Chairperson, Secretary, Organiser, Women’s Organiser, Youth Organiser, Communications Officer and Electoral Affairs Officer.

    [The Committee recommends a one-man one-vote (OMOV) system as a long-term electoral framework for the Party. In the absence of the foundational structures for the OMOV electoral system, the proposed limited expansion (representing 40% rise) at the polling station level is more realistic and manageable. It has the effect of increasing the electoral college considerably while the Party works on the recommended OMOV system.]

    • MOTION SEVEN

    Articles 6(1); 7(2); 9(1); 10(7)(3)

    Amend article 6(1), 7(2), 9(1) & 10(7)(3) of the Constitution to split/decouple the position of Research and Electoral Affairs Officer at the Constituency, Regional and National levels of the Party.

    [The amendment brings the needed focus and attention to each of the two responsibilities. Also, it is not every researcher who understands electoral matters and vice versa. Therefore, separating the positions and appointing people with the requisite expertise to occupy the respective positions will inure to the Party’s benefit.] 

    • MOTION EIGHT

    Article 7(2)

    Amend article 7(2) of the Constitution to include the Constituency Research Officer, Electoral Affairs Officer and PWD Coordinator on the Constituency Executive Committee.  

    [This represents a limited expansion of the Constituency Executive Committee and seeks to promote inclusivity and broader participation in Party activities at the Constituency level.]

    • MOTION NINE

    Articles 7(5); 9(2); 10(7)(3)

    Amend articles 7(5), 9(2) & 10(7)(3) of the Constitution to make Communication Officers at all levels of the Party elected from the Polling Station, Electoral Area, Constituency, Regional and at the National level. At the National level, the Communication Officer shall be the Director of Communications. 

    [The appointment of Communication Officers has, in many instances, been fraught with a lot of challenges occasioned by perceptions of favouritism and lack of candour. Making the positions elective will afford the Party delegates to select persons they think can best communicate for the Party. For the avoidance of doubt, the Deputy Directors of Communications shall remain appointed.]

    1. MOTION TEN

    Articles 7(10); 9(7)

    Amend articles 7(10) & 9(7) of the Constitution to prevent Party Officers who get appointed into government from continuing to hold their offices.

    [Party officers who are appointed into government should not be allowed to hold dual positions. So long as they have accepted the appointment to serve in government, they should focus on their mandate in government and give opportunity for other competent Party members to occupy their positions in the Party. It is also in line with the provisions in clause 10 of article 7 & clause 7 of article 9, which are intended to ensure that government appointees do not hold Constituency, Regional and National Executive offices.]

    1. MOTION ELEVEN

    Articles  7(26); 9(24)

    Amend articles 7(26) & 9(24) of the Constitution to provide that any vacancy that may occur for whatever reason in the case of the Constituency Secretary and Regional Secretary shall automatically be filled by the Deputy Constituency and Deputy Regional Secretary, respectively.

    [The Deputy Constituency and Deputy Regional Secretaries, just like the substantive Constituency and Regional Secretaries, are also elected by the same delegates at the same Conference. The Deputy Secretaries should be able to occupy the positions of the substantive Secretaries in the absence of the latter.]

    1. MOTION TWELVE

    Article 7(27)

    Amend article 7(27) of the Constitution to give voting rights to National and Regional Officers at the Constituency Delegates Conference at the Constituency they hail from.

    [This amendment strengthens the connections between these Officers and the respective Constituencies they hail from, where they may also serve as Patrons and source of logistical support.  This amendment is also geared towards the proposed limited expansion of the electoral college pending the OMOV system.]

    1. MOTION THIRTEEN

    Articles 7(27); 9(25); 10(2)

    Amend articles 7(27), 9(25) & 10(2) of the Constitution to provide that the Party shall hold Constituency/Regional/ National Delegates Conferences every two years (i.e. biennially) instead of annually.

    [This amendment looks at holding timely but necessary Conferences across all levels of the Party. There shall also be sufficient time to hold other equally important Conferences within the period before the biennial conference. Where it becomes necessary, an Extraordinary Delegates Conference may be called.]

    1. MOTION FOURTEEN

    Article 7(27)(b)

    Amend article 7(27)(b) of the Constitution to give voting rights to the Electoral Area Executives at the Constituency Biennial Delegates Conference. 

    [Currently,  Electoral Area Coordinators and all Polling Station Executives have voting rights at Constituency Delegates Conference. The proposed Electoral Area Executives (made up of the Electoral Area Coordinator to be now called Electoral Area Chairperson and four (4) other executives) should have voting rights at the Constituency Delegates Conference.]

    1. MOTION FIFTEEN

    Articles 7(29); 9(27)

    Amend articles 7(29) & 9(27) of the Constitution to allow Constituency and Regional Secretaries to present reports on the state of the Party at the Constituency and Regional Delegates Conference, with the prior approval of the Constituency and Regional  Executive Committee as the case may be.

    [Constituency and Regional Secretaries are the administrative heads of the Constituency and Regional Secretariats of the Party and it is appropriate that they present a report on the state of the party to the Constituency and Regional Party respectively to the Delegates  Conference with prior approval of the Constituency and Regional Executive Committee as the case may be.]

    1. MOTION SIXTEEN

    Articles 7(29); 9(27)

    Amend articles 7(29) & 9(27) of the Constitution to require the statement of account to be presented by the Constituency and Regional Treasurers at the Constituency and Regional Delegates Conference to have received prior approval of the Constituency and Regional Executive Committee as the case may be.

    [This allows the Constituency and Regional Executive Committee to scrutinize and give a stamp of approval to the statements before they are presented at the Delegates Conference.]

    1. MOTION SEVENTEEN

    Article 7(30)

    Amend article 7(30) of the Constitution to provide that the Regional Executive Committee shall appoint persons, other than Polling Station, Electoral Area and Constituency Officers,  to supervise Polling Station and Electoral Area elections.  

    [Constituencies are directly involved in the compilation of the album for organising Polling Station and Constituency elections. It is therefore prudent that supervision of these elections should be taken to the Regional level to absolve it from any conflict of interest.]

    1. MOTION EIGHTEEN

    Article 8; Article 8(5)

    Amend article 8 of the Constitution to specifically provide that the External Branches shall have three (3) representatives on the National Executive Committee and five(5) representatives on the National Council.  

    [TheParty Constitution under article 8(5) grants the External Branches representation at the National Executive Committee and the National Council but does not indicate the number of representatives they should appoint to serve on these bodies. This amendment brings clarity to the number of representatives the External Branches shall have on the National Executive Committee and National Council.] 

    1. MOTION NINETEEN

    Articles 8; 13(11)

    Amend articles 8 & 13(11) of the Constitution to specifically provide that all former and current executives of the External Branches shall have voting rights at the Presidential Primaries.

    [The amendment seeks to expand the electoral college for the Presidential Primaries to promote inclusivity and broader participation. This is in line with the proposed limited expansion.]

    • MOTION TWENTY

    Articles 8; 10(2)(f)

    Amend articles 8 & 10(2)(f) of the Constitution to specifically provide that ALL current executives of the External Branches shall have voting rights at the National Delegates Conference.

    [Previously, only twelve (12) Executives of the External Branches were allowed to vote at the National Delegates Conference. This amendment, allowing all of them to vote,  promotes inclusivity and broader participation. The amendment is also in line with the proposed limited expansion.]

    • MOTION TWENTY-ONE

    Article 9

    Amend article 9 of the Constitution to include Regional Electoral Affairs Officer, Regional Research Officer (note: the decoupling of the two) Regional Legal Officer, Regional PWD Coordinator, and a Special Duties Officer as part of the Regional Executive Committee.

    [This represents a limited expansion of the Regional Executive Committee.]

    • MOTION TWENTY-TWO

    Article 9(1)

    Amend article 9(1) of the Constitution to expand the composition of the Regional Executive Committee members to include Constituency Secretaries.

    [Constituency Secretaries are responsible for all administrative matters at the Constituency level and it is only proper that they are part of the Regional Executive Committees.]

    • MOTION TWENTY-THREE

    Article 9(1) new provision

    Amend the Constitution by inserting a new provision to create a Regional Steering Committee composed of the Regional Officers, Chairman of the Regional Council of Elders and Regional Parliamentary Caucus Chair.

    [The proposed amendment aligns with what pertains at the national level, where we have a National Steering Committee, which is the body in charge of the day-to-day administration of the Party at the National level. The Regional Steering Committee shall also be responsible for the day-to-day administration of the Party in the Regions. The Regional Steering Committee system shall facilitate decision-making at the Regional level.]

    • MOTION TWENTY-FOUR

    Articles 9; 10(2); 13

    Amend articles 9, 10(2) & 13 of the Constitution to grant voting rights to the Regional & National TESCON Coordinators and the TESCON President from each recognised tertiary institution in the country at the Regional and National Delegates Conference respectively.

    [The Regional TESCON Coordinators are in charge of coordinating all the activities of TESCON in the various tertiary institutions within the Region. It is only proper to grant them voting rights at Conferences just like the Executives whose activities they coordinate. The same principle applies to the National TESCON Coordinators. The specificity on the TESCON President and not just any representative of TESCON avoids the usual challenge with validation of the representative from TESCON.]

    • MOTION TWENTY-FIVE

    Articles 9(25); 10(2); article 13(11)

    Amend article 10(2) & 13(11) of the Constitution to grant voting rights to the TESCON President (and NOT a representative from TESCON) from each recognised tertiary institution in the country at the Regional and National Delegates Conference.

    [The specificity on the TESCON President and not just any representative of TESCON avoids the usual challenge with validation of the representative from TESCON.]

    • MOTION TWENTY-SIX

    Article 10;  new provision

    Amend article 10 of the Constitution by inserting a new provision to include the consideration of Position Papers from Sector Committees of the Party on key developments since the last National Delegates Conference at National Delegates Conference.

    Amend article 10 of the Constitution by inserting a new provision to modify the composition of the Sector Committees under the National Executive Committee to include both Members of Parliament and non-Members of Parliament as well as their functions.

    • MOTION TWENTY-EIGHT

    Articles 10(2)(3)(e); 13(11); 16

    Amend articles 10(2)(3)(e) & 13 of the Constitution to make all Members of the National Council of Elders delegates at the National Delegates Conference and the Presidential Primaries.

    [Considering the indispensable roles played by the National Council of Elders, they deserve more representation at the party’s highest decision-making body.
