The New Patriotic Party (NPP), through the Presidential Elections Committee, has formally designated the Ghana Police Service as the only security institution responsible for providing security for the Party’s Presidential Primary scheduled for Saturday, January 31, 2026.
Accordingly, the Party states unequivocally that it will not tolerate the presence, deployment, or activities of any non-uniformed, plain-clothed, or otherwise unauthorised security personnel deployed by National Security or any other institution at any voting centre, collation point, or any activity connected to the conduct of the primary.
We have information that some elements within the National Security have plans to deploy unauthorised operatives. Any attempt by National Security or any other unauthorised body to deploy operatives to the election will be treated as a deliberate and unlawful intrusion into the internal democratic processes of the Party, with the clear potential to disrupt or manipulate the election.
The NPP will not hesitate to invoke all lawful remedies available to it to protect the integrity of this process. Any unauthorised presence will be challenged and resisted within the bounds of the law.
The Ghana Police Service has so far shown enough capacity and professionalism. We, therefore, expect the Ghana Police Service to enforce this directive strictly and without compromise. The Police must ensure that only duly authorized, identifiable police officers are deployed throughout the exercise in accordance with assurances given.
SIGNED
Henry Nana Boakye
National Organizer, NPP
