Presidential hopeful and former Assin Central MP, Kennedy Ohene Agyapong, on Saturday, January 31, 2026, cast his ballot in the New Patriotic Party’s (NPP) presidential primary at the Assin Central constituency in the Central Region.
Mr. Agyapong is one of five contenders vying for the party’s presidential nomination. The others are former Vice-President Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia; former Minister of Food and Agriculture, Dr. Bryan Acheampong; former Minister of Education, Dr. Yaw Osei Adutwum; and former NPP General Secretary, Mr. Kwabena Agyei Agyepong.
The NPP presidential primary will produce an outright winner only if a candidate secures more than 50 per cent of the valid votes cast. Where no candidate meets this requirement, the party’s constitution provides for a run-off between the two leading contenders within 14 days.
A total of 211,849 delegates are expected to participate in the nationwide exercise. Voting is being conducted without biometric verification, with party officials instead using two voter registers at each polling centre to verify eligible delegates. Proxy voting is not permitted.
Polling is taking place at 333 centres across 276 constituencies nationwide, including a designated polling station at the party’s national headquarters in Accra. Voting commenced at 7:00 a.m. and is scheduled to end at 2:00 p.m.
