Former Minister of Communications Ursula Owusu-Ekuful has officially declared her intention to contest as National Secretary in the New Patriotic Party (NPP).
Announcing her decision on her official Facebook page, the former Minister stated that the ruling National Democratic Congress (NDC) is a caretaker government that lied its way to power and is clueless on what to do to govern, hence she was prepared to contest as General Secretary to help the NPP secure victory in 2028.
She pledged to unite the NPP towards victory in 2028 and appealed to delegates of the NPP to consider her as their next General Secretary.
‘’This caretaker NDC government is there not just because they are preferred, they are there because they lied their way into government, amidst lofty promises, and caused belief in us to wane. But we will revive it.
From the polling stations, through to the electoral areas, constituencies, and regions to the top, we will restore confidence in our party and unity amongst ourselves. That is the only dose we need to booth out this accident-of-a-government.
On this day of my birth, Patriots, I come before you, the fighter you have always known. Nurtured, proven, and prepared, over the years, to join you on this collective journey to rescue our beloved country from this clueless, insensitive, and this glaringly incompetent government.’’

Dearest Patriots,
I come to you on this day of my birth with genuine regards.
A lot of water has passed under the bridge since our stormy face-off with ourselves and our base.
We came out bruised, our individual and collective egos battered. We lie not in a good place. However, as our great tradition had demonstrated over the years, influenced by the then burgeoning spirit of resilience and purpose that heralded our birth in Saltpond, we will thrive.
Scathed, we refuse to be burnt, and in the unlikely circumstance that we set ourselves in a blazing inferno, enduring the ultimate sacrifice for the New Patriotic Party (NPP: Development in Freedom), we will rise. It will shape us, mould us, and like the Phoenix, we will rise and be ready.
Our situation is but a necessary phase of self-introspection and diagnosis towards our journey of re-organisation.
This caretaker NDC government is there not just because they are preferred, they are there because they lied their way into government, amidst lofty promises, and caused belief in us to wane. But we will revive it.
From the polling stations, through to the electoral areas, constituencies, and regions to the top, we will restore confidence in our party and unity amongst ourselves. That is the only dose we need to booth out this accident-of-a-government.
On this day of my birth, Patriots, I come before you, the fighter you have always known. Nurtured, proven, and prepared, over the years, to join you on this collective journey to rescue our beloved country from this clueless, insensitive, and this glaringly incompetent government.
I come to you in all humility, to ask you, dear patriots, to join me on this rescue mission as your next General Secretary.
December 2028 is soon upon us, and by which time the good people of Ghana and us all, as it is today, will remain in dire need for change. That is why we need to re-shape, re-organise, and put ourselves in a good place to effectively represent the desired change and restore the belief of Ghanaians in us as the institutors of growth and development.
Across the country and the diaspora, the NPP family comes together as one big family, bound together in unison by the cohesive purpose hinged on an innate desire to re-capture power and do better for ourselves and for mother Ghana.
This remains the ultimate resolve of the party. This remains the ultimate resolve of Ghanaians. It remains the ultimate resolve of Ursula Owusu-Ekuful.
Patriots, join me, let us commit to the struggle, for I know with unity and God on our side, as well as the collective will of the Ghanaian people, we shall overcome.
