Carlos Eyes NPP Top Job …Wants Delegates To Elect Him As National Treasurer

Carlos Ahenkorah announced his intention to contest for the position of National Treasurer of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) on Sunday in Accra. Mr. Ahenkorah said his decision followed "extensive consultations with party grassroots members, constituency and regional executives, as well as party elders across the country." He stated that the NPP requires a stronger and more transparent financial management system, as it reorganises and prepares for the 2028 general elections.

Mr. Ahenkorah stressed that effective financial administration would be critical to rebuilding the party and strengthening operations at the constituency and polling station levels. He pledged to promote accountability and discipline in the management of party funds if elected. He also promised to expand the party's fundraising base and ensure equitable allocation of resources across all levels of the party structure. Mr. Ahenkorah noted that his experience in public office, including managing budgets as both a legislator and deputy minister, had equipped him with the expertise needed for the position.

The NPP is expected to hold its national executive elections later this year, as the party begins preparations toward the next general election cycle. Mr. Ahenkorah appealed to delegates to support his candidature, arguing that a financially stable and united NPP would be better positioned to regain public confidence and return to power in 2028.
