The Patriotic Intellectuals Ghana – Takoradi Technical University (TTU) Chapter is pleased to announce its unreserved endorsement of John Boadu for the position of National Chairman of the New Patriotic Party (NPP).
Our endorsement is founded on his exceptional experience within the Party, his proven organisational and electoral competence, commitment to party unity, and capacity to provide the strategic leadership required to rebuild the NPP and secure a decisive victory in the 2028 General Elections.
We firmly believe that the NPP needs a National Chairman who understands the Party from the grassroots to the national level, possesses the courage to make difficult decisions, and has the credibility to unite its membership behind a common purpose. John Boadu embodies these qualities.
- Three Decades of Unmatched Party Experience
John Boadu’s political journey through the ranks of the NPP, over approximately 30 years, has prepared him exceptionally well for the office of National Chairman. He has served the Party in the following capacities:
- Polling Station Chairman
- Constituency Secretary
- Greater Accra Regional Research Officer
- National Youth Treasurer
- National Youth Organiser
- Deputy National Communications Director
- National Organiser
- Acting General Secretary
- General Secretary
This remarkable progression demonstrates a deep understanding of the Party’s structures, internal dynamics, organisational demands and electoral processes.
Having served at the polling station, constituency, regional and national levels, John Boadu understands the concerns of party members and the practical realities of building a winning political organisation. His experience as National Organiser and General Secretary, in particular, provides him with invaluable institutional knowledge and a strong foundation for effective national leadership.
He is not your ordinary “Party Person” seeking to learn the Party’s machinery; he is a seasoned party administrator who has helped operate and strengthen it.
- A Clear and Practical Agenda for Rebuilding the NPP
Our endorsement is also informed by John Boadu’s commitment to a comprehensive programme of organisational renewal and electoral preparedness. His seven-point anchor plan addresses some of the most pressing challenges confronting the Party.
- Strengthening the internal security of the Party
The protection of party members, structures and ballots during elections must be a priority. John Boadu recognises the importance of strengthening internal security arrangements to safeguard the Party’s interests and protect the democratic participation of its members.
- Rebranding the Party
The NPP must restore public confidence, rebuild its image and reconnect meaningfully with Ghanaians. This requires honest reflection, renewed public engagement and a deliberate effort to demonstrate that the Party listens, learns and responds to the needs of the people.
- Training and orientation
A strong political party depends on knowledgeable, disciplined, well-informed and effective officers. Regular training and orientation will equip party officials at every level with the skills, knowledge and institutional understanding necessary to discharge their responsibilities effectively.
- Periodic engagement with the media and civil society organisations
Constructive engagement with the media, civil society organisations and other stakeholders is essential to rebuilding trust, communicating the Party’s vision and strengthening its relationship with the Ghanaian public.
- Provision of logistics and resources for the Party
The Party cannot operate effectively without adequate resources. John Boadu’s commitment to equipping party structures, from polling stations to the national level, reflects a practical understanding that electoral victories are built through sustained organisation, adequate logistics and effective coordination.
- Recognising the Western and Central Regions as strategic electoral assets
The Western and Central Regions are critical to the NPP’s electoral fortunes. John Boadu’s strong connections with the Party’s grassroots in these regions place him in a favourable position to mobilise support, strengthen local structures and contribute meaningfully to the Party’s national electoral strategy.
We believe that a National Chairman who understands these regions and appreciates their strategic importance will be better positioned to harness their electoral potential.
- Restoring the Party’s winning machinery
The NPP must return to a culture of effective leadership, proper supervision, timely appraisal and accountability. John Boadu’s experience equips him to revitalise the Party’s organisational machinery, identify weaknesses early and ensure that every level of the organisation works towards a common electoral objective.
This is the kind of practical, results-oriented leadership that the NPP needs as it prepares for 2028.
- The Leadership Qualities the NPP Needs
Beyond his extensive experience, John Boadu possesses the personal and professional qualities required of a National Chairman.
He has demonstrated visionary and strategic leadership, integrity, credibility, political maturity and sound judgement. His ability to bridge the generational divide between the young and the old makes him particularly well suited to building a united and forward-looking Party.
His strengths in organisation, administration, communication and political mobilisation are complemented by his grassroots accessibility, commitment to fairness and impartiality, and willingness to make difficult but necessary decisions.
We are equally encouraged by his commitment to financial prudence, responsible resource mobilisation, inclusiveness, succession planning and loyalty to the Party’s constitution.
These qualities are essential for a National Chairman who must command respect, inspire confidence and ensure that party decisions are implemented fairly and effectively.
- Why John Boadu, and Why Now?
The 2028 General Elections will require more than rhetoric and campaign promises. They will demand a disciplined, united, well-resourced and strategically organised NPP.
The Party must rebuild confidence among its members, reconnect with the electorate, strengthen its grassroots structures and restore the effectiveness of its electoral machinery.
John Boadu’s experience and proposed agenda provide a credible basis for achieving these objectives. His familiarity with the Party’s structures, his longstanding relationships across the country and his understanding of the Western and Central Regions offer strategic advantages that should not be overlooked.
For us, the choice is clear: the NPP needs a National Chairman who has been tested by the responsibilities of party organisation and has acquired the experience necessary to lead effectively. John Boadu is that candidate.
- Our Call to Party Delegates
The Patriotic Intellectuals Ghana – Takoradi Technical University Chapter therefore calls on all NPP delegates to support John Boadu’s candidature for National Chairman.
We urge delegates to consider his record of service, the depth of his institutional knowledge, his commitment to unity and his practical vision for rebuilding the Party.
This is an opportunity to elect a Chairman who understands the Party’s past, appreciates the challenges of the present and is prepared to lead the NPP towards a stronger and more successful future.
We are confident that, under his leadership, the Party can strengthen its structures, restore its winning spirit and approach the 2028 General Elections with renewed purpose, unity and determination.
Conclusion
Our endorsement of John Boadu is a considered expression of confidence in his experience, character, leadership capacity and vision for the NPP.
We believe that his candidature represents an opportunity to consolidate the Party’s institutional strengths, address its organisational challenges and build a more effective, inclusive and electorally competitive political organisation.
