Technical glitches force NPP to extend dues payment deadline
New Patriotic Party (NPP) announced an emergency extension for the payment of party dues following widespread technical failures on its digital payment platform. The decision comes after numerous stakeholders reported significant challenges in accessing and completing transactions on the official online portal. The party's General Secretary, Justin Kodua Frimpong, confirmed that the deadline has been moved to Tuesday, 5th May 2026.
The National Secretariat issued a directive to all Polling Station Elections Committees stating that "proof of payment of dues shall not constitute grounds for the disqualification of any prospective candidate during this period." Polling Station Elections Committees are required to document the names of all members, categorising them into those who have successfully completed their payments and those whose dues remain outstanding. The press release was issued on Friday, 24th April 2026.
The National Secretariat has pledged to resolve the technical issues through its IT Directorate and will publish a definitive list of members in "good standing" before the scheduled polling station election dates. The General Secretary expressed the party's appreciation for the "understanding and cooperation" of its members as the technical team works to restore full system functionality.
