The 2024 Presidential Candidate of the New Patriotic Party and former Vice President, Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, has indicated that some changes will be made to the NPP constitution ahead of the 2028 election.

An example of such changes, he said, is the party’s delegate system, which he said will be expanded to allow more party members to vote to elect a Presidential Candidate and party officers.

Addressing party supporters at the NPP Headquarters, Dr. Bawumia on April 23, 2025, explained that the expansion of the delegate system will help the party and pull many into the electoral college.

“You can expect without any doubt that the delegate system is going to change. We will change the current system and allow more people to vote. That will give the right to more people to come in and be part of the electoral college,” he stated.

Dr. Bawumia further revealed that approximately 2.1 million party supporters failed to show up at the polls, which he believes played a major role in the party’s loss.

“Notwithstanding our hard work, we still suffered a heavy defeat. When you look at what happened, you will see that it was internal. Many of our supporters did not come out to vote.

“This is fundamentally why we lost the election. If you look at 2020 vis-à-vis 2024, 2.1 million of our supporters did not come out to vote. So, the key to victory is within the NPP because we decided not to vote. So, if we decide to vote, we will win,” he said.
