Former Ayensuano MP Samuel Ayeh-Paye has predicted a decisive victory for former Agriculture Minister Bryan Acheampong in the New Patriotic Party’s (NPP) flagbearer primaries scheduled for January 31, 2026.
According to him, the Abetifi MP’s momentum and strong grassroots response point to a clear “one-touch win.”
Speaking on Channel One TV’s Breakfast Daily on Thursday, November 20, he said the widespread support Acheampong is receiving across constituencies reflects confidence in his ability to address unemployment and attract investment if elected as the party’s 2028 presidential candidate.
“The struggle of the youth is not because they are lazy, but because the jobs are not there. If we can find someone who, even in their private capacity, can create jobs and attract other investors so that our young people can work, Ghanaians will vote for them.
“That is why I am working for Bryan Acheampong and want him to be the NPP’s candidate for the 2028 election,” he stressed.
Mr. Ayeh-Paye added that consultations with delegates have been overwhelmingly positive, revealing a strong base ready to back Acheampong.
“The grounds are solid. A lot of people have joined us, and the feedback we are receiving is very encouraging. Come January 31, 2026, it will be a one-touch win for Bryan Acheampong,” he said.
Meanwhile, former Vice President and NPP flagbearer hopeful Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia has also appealed to delegates in Sene East to support his bid, citing his loyalty and years of service to the party as he seeks to lead the NPP into the 2028 general elections.
