Mr. John Boadu, General Secretary of the ruling New Patriotic Party (NPP), says it is in the best interests of the party to re-elect him ahead of the 2024 elections.
So far, five people, including John Boadu, have indicated an interest in running for the position.
However, the incumbent General Secretary believes that none of the candidates can match his wealth of experience.
Mr. John Boadu, speaking on Citi TV’s Face to Face, said it would be politically unwise for delegates to bypass him in favor of another General Secretary, given the NPP’s investment in him over the years.
Mr. Boadu also believes it will be suicidal for the NPP to sideline the only experienced hand they have onboard, especially when the party will be going into the 2024 general elections with a new Presidential Candidate, National Chairman, National Organizer, amongst others.

- Kofi Jumah’s verdict: Asiedu Nketia is far ahead of the NPP’s well-funded John Boadu.
“I am a person who delivers. I was given the opportunity twice to help the party in power and j have done nothing less. I have done exactly that and even more excellently by restructuring the party. The NDC has been in opposition for long. PThey have experienced people in the game. The likes of Asiedu Nketia are all around and we can’t risk entering the race with inexperienced persons. From where I sit and per my records and experience, I am the best person for this position going to 2024.”
“Considering that our National Chairman is out of the race and our National Organiser, who is now CEO for NLA, our Youth Organiser is eyeing the National Organiser position, and our Treasurer also changing position, also with new flagbearers and running mates, the party needs an experienced person now more than ever to guide it to victory,” he added.
