The Bono Regional Chairman of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), Kwame Baffoe, popularly known as Abronye DC, has hinted at his intention to contest the party’s flagbearer position ahead of the 2028 general elections.
Speaking in an interview on Okay FM on July 16, 2025, Abronye DC stated that he is more than qualified to contest for the position when nominations are opened.
“Do you know that I will be contesting the flagbearership position of the NPP? I will contest, so I am also a potential aspirant. I am more qualified than most of the people who have shown interest. If it is about certificates, I have a lot. And this is not about those ones that GTEC will question me about.
“I had a Second-Class Upper in Law from the University of Ghana, Legon,” he said.
Abronye further cautioned other aspirants against making divisive statements that could harm the party’s unity. He urged them to focus on their campaigns rather than attacking each other.
He warned that such utterances could affect the party’s chances in the upcoming elections.
Meanwhile, among the top NPP stalwarts who have declared their interest in contesting the party’s flagbearer position are Dr Mahamudu Bawumia former Vice President, Kennedy Agyapong, former Member of Parliament for Assin Central; Dr Yaw Osei Adutwum, former Minister for Education; Bryan Acheampong, Member of Parliament for Abetifi; and Boakye Agyarko, former Energy Minister among others.
