NPP To Announce Position On Proposed Amendments To 1992 Constitution

The New Patriotic Party (NPP) says it is set to announce its official position on the proposed amendments to the 1992 Constitution of Ghana, as set out in the Government's Position Paper dated July 30, 2026.

In a statement signed by the Chairman of the NPP Policy Co-ordination Committee, Kojo Oppong Nkrumah (MP), and dated August 28, 2026, the party said it was formally consulted as part of the national process and made submissions to the Constitution Review Committee (CRC), which subsequently presented its report to Government. Government then issued a Position Paper in response to the CRC's recommendations.

The party said its Constitutional and Legal Affairs Policy Committee has undertaken a detailed review of both the CRC report and the Government's Position Paper and has prepared the NPP's position paper after analysing the two documents.

According to the statement, the NPP's position paper will now be submitted to the party's Presidential Candidate, Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, and the National Executive Committee (NEC) for consideration and adoption.

"Thereafter, the NPP will communicate its official position on the proposed constitutional amendments to the Ghanaian people," the statement said.

The party reaffirmed its commitment to a transparent, inclusive and orderly constitutional review process.

"The NPP remains committed to a transparent, inclusive and orderly constitutional review process that protects Ghana's democracy, strengthens our constitutional institutions and advances the country's political stability, and development in freedom," it added.
