[contextly_sidebar id=”18OQ7NpHnOBtbxG044QsVBFwJLhpcgAm”]The party is reportedly split between the two main contenders for the presidential ticket – Nana Akufo Addo and Alan Kyerematen.<\/p>\n

Supporters of both candidates have been attacking themselves in the campaign process.<\/p>\n

Last Saturday some known supporters of one of the candidates Nana Akufo-Addo in the Brong Ahafo Region, allegedly attacked a supporter of Alan Kyeremanten at a radio station.<\/p>\n

Some of the party\u2019s constituency executives across the country have also thrown their weight behind Nana Akufo-Addo ahead of the contest on Saturday.<\/p>\n

The NPP Chairman told the press that \u201cI’m happy to inform you that all is set for the election of our next presidential candidate.\u201d<\/p>\n

The General Secretary of the party Kwabena Agyepong who addressed the media announced that campaigning officially ends on Thursday and also warned that “there shall not be campaigning at the polling stations on election day.”<\/p>\n

Three candidates are competing to lead the party in the next general elections; Alan Kyermenaten, Francis Addai Nimoh and Nana Akufo-Addo<\/p>\n
