NPP North East Chairmanship: Lawyer Sambian Vows to Redeem Party's Image, Boost 2028 Prospects

Lawyer Sulley Sambian, the New Patriotic Party's (NPP) North East Regional Secretary, has declared his intention to unseat the incumbent chairman and lead the party in the region. Sambian, who is vying for the Regional Chairmanship, promises to redeem the party's image and ensure its continued success.

He is positioning himself as a candidate who combines legal expertise with extensive grassroots party work. Sambian argues that the North East region, the home turf of NPP flagbearer Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, cannot afford to gamble with its electoral prospects in 2028. "I am tried, tested, and ready to lead the NPP in the region as Chairman," he stated, asserting that his strategy and mental ability will deliver victory.

“

I am tried, tested, and ready to lead the NPP in the region as Chairman. I am offering my expertise following years of service to ensure that the region becomes a no-go area for our opponents. I have the strategy and the mental ability to deliver.

Sambian's bid sets up a potentially close contest, reminiscent of the 2022 regional conference where the incumbent chairman narrowly retained his post. He advocates for a results-driven approach to party organization, believing that disciplined strategy, not just rhetoric, will be key to reclaiming and increasing parliamentary seats. This focus addresses a broader concern within the NPP about countering the entrenched National Democratic Congress (NDC) presence in the area.

Having served as Regional Secretary, Sambian believes he has firsthand knowledge of the party's internal operations, which he sees as proof of his readiness. His candidacy adds significant weight to the upcoming conference, serving as an early indicator of the NPP's regional unity and direction as it heads into a crucial election cycle.
