Alexander Kwamena Afenyo-Markin is the Minority Leader in Parliament
The New Patriotic Party (NPP) has signaled its determination to regain political dominance in the 2028 general elections, vowing that no parliamentary seat currently held by the National Democratic Congress (NDC) will remain untouchable.
The Minority Leader in Parliament, Alexander Kwamena Afenyo-Markin, delivered the message during an address to executives of the Tertiary Students Confederacy (TESCON) at Parliament on Wednesday, March 18, 2026.
Speaking passionately to the group, he encouraged them to ramp up grassroots engagement, stressing that success would hinge on discipline, loyalty, and continuous interactions with voters.
“If elections are held today, NPP will be the majority, but that will also require hard work and loyalty. We do not doubt our minds that you will take up the mantle,” he said, urging the students to take an active role in shaping the party’s future.
The Effutu MP also critiqued the current administration, pointing to what he sees as a failure to fulfill campaign promises.
Among the disappointments he highlighted were the stalled 24-Hour Economy policy, the government’s inability to raise cocoa producer prices, and recent hikes in utility tariffs.
In addition, Afenyo-Markin called on TESCON members to dismiss suggestions that the NPP sidelines certain ethnic groups, asserting that the party is inclusive and committed to representing all Ghanaians regardless of background.
At the same gathering, Akuapim North MP Sammi Awuku reinforced the party’s strategy, declaring that the NPP will leave no NDC-held seat uncontested.
“We will be joining our colleagues to storm the campuses. The 2028 election is all play, all play, no NDC seat is safe. We will approach every NDC seat like a normal seat,” he stated, signaling a vigorous campaign ahead.
