The Member of Parliament for the Bekwai Constituency, Ralph Poku-Adusei, has urged New Patriotic Party (NPP) delegates and stakeholders to put aside past grievances and unite to reclaim power in the 2028 general elections.
Speaking at the Bekwai Constituency’s annual delegates conference, which brought together 894 delegates, 34 electoral area coordinators, past executives, patrons, council of elders, regional representatives, MPs, and other key party stakeholders, Poku-Adusei emphasised the need for reconciliation and renewed focus.
The conference, sponsored by him in collaboration with the constituency executives, was aimed at mending divisions, welcoming back defectors, and strengthening the party’s grassroots base.
In his address, Poku-Adusei called for commitment, discipline, and resilience in the NPP’s quest to return to power. Quoting the saying, “a hungry man is an angry man,” he encouraged delegates to channel their determination into a fierce resolve for victory.

“We have done it before, in 2000 and again in 2016, when the NPP bounced back to secure victory. We can do it once more, but only if we stay united, hungry, and focused,” he declared.
He pledged his personal commitment to fostering reconciliation and urged all members to actively build a formidable front ahead of the 2028 elections.
Bekwai Constituency Chairman, Alex Arko Addai Darkwa, also rallied members to embrace the NPP’s elephant symbol as their tool for victory in 2028.
He cautioned against distractions from the upcoming flagbearership contest, urging members to reflect soberly and support a candidate with the “Midas touch” to ensure electoral success.
