New Patriotic Party (NPP) presidential hopeful, Dr. Bryan Acheampong, will officially begin his Eastern Regional campaign on Thursday, September 24, 2025, as part of broader efforts to secure victory in the party’s presidential primaries slated for January 31, 2026.
The Abetifi lawmaker made this announcement at a press briefing held on Wednesday, September 17, 2025.
The campaign, expected to span one month, will focus on direct engagements with party delegates who will decide the party’s next flagbearer. Dr. Acheampong revealed that he will meet with about 800 delegates at a durbar in Nkwatia-Kwahu on Thursday, September 18, before continuing to other constituencies through the weekend.
Launching his regional tour from the Abirem Constituency, Dr. Acheampong said his campaign plan involves visiting three constituencies daily to effectively deliver his message to delegates.
His campaign message emphasizes unity, which he has consistently championed since declaring his presidential ambitions. According to him, the NPP needs “a new face and a fresh brain” to secure victory in the 2028 general elections.
Dr. Acheampong outlined three key priorities he intends to pursue if elected flagbearer and, eventually, President:
- Infrastructure Development
- Security
- Job Creation for the Youth
Describing himself as the “real digital man”, Dr. Acheampong touted his expertise in IT, information systems, and security intelligence, alongside his vast business experience. He has established successful ventures in tourism, IT, real estate, and media, reinforcing his credentials as a seasoned entrepreneur and development-driven leader.
The immediate past Minister for Food and Agriculture officially filed his nomination forms on August 28, 2025, at the NPP headquarters in Asylum Down. His submission was met with a large crowd of enthusiastic supporters who chanted his name in solidarity.
Dr. Bryan Acheampong, widely recognized as one of the leading contenders in the upcoming primaries, is campaigning on a platform centered on youth empowerment, job creation, agricultural growth, and high-standard governance—values he believes reflect the aspirations of the ordinary Ghanaian.
