Minister for Food and Agriculture, Eric Opoku, has reportedly confirmed his intention to contest the National Democratic Congress (NDC) flagbearership ahead of the 2028 general elections.

According to broadcast journalist Omanhene Kwabena Asante, who made the revelation on Asempa FM’s Ekosii Sen show, Mr. Opoku’s decision has already been finalised.

He also disclosed that former Chief of Staff Julius Debrah, a native of the Eastern Region, has expressed interest in leading the party into the next presidential race.

“This is confirmed. My own fellow Ahafo man, Eric Opoku, will contest. Julius Debrah from the Eastern Region will also contest,” Omanhene stated.

The development hints at an upcoming internal contest within the NDC as the party begins preparations for life after President John Dramani Mahama’s expected second term.

Chief of Staff Julius Debrah has called on Ghanaians to rally behind the government’s Reset Agenda as part of efforts to drive national growth, strengthen institutions, and curb underperformance and corruption.

Speaking at the launch of the Boardroom Governance Summit, Mr. Debrah emphasized the need for a renewed focus on effective governance and leadership across all sectors.

“The John Mahama-led administration is committed to refreshing every sector of the country’s fabric to facilitate growth and profitability. Good governance is the cornerstone of trust and confidence, which attracts investment and drives institutional success,” he stated.

The summit, which seeks to bring together boards of directors from both public and private institutions, will focus on improving decision-making processes, oversight functions, and accountability structures within organizations.

Organizers described boardroom governance as the system of rules, practices, and processes that guide boards in making strategic, informed, and profitable decisions.

Government hopes the summit will inspire boards of public institutions to adopt global best practices and align with the broader national agenda for sustainable development.

Mr. Debrah encouraged all institutions to actively participate in the summit, noting that shared experiences and good practices could help transform Ghana’s governance landscape.
