Bernard Anbataayela Mornah, Leader of the People’s National Convention (PNC), has declared that the party is repositioning itself to break the long-standing dominance of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) and the New Patriotic Party (NPP) ahead of the 2028 general elections.
Speaking after a strategic meeting with regional chairmen in Kumasi, Mr Mornah announced that the PNC had begun what he described as a major restructuring and rebranding exercise aimed at transforming the party into a “formidable political force” capable of forming the next government.
“We shall be reorganising our party in a manner as to present to you the next government that Ghana will have,” he declared.
According to him, the meeting was convened following growing concerns among party executives that the PNC had remained politically inactive and disconnected from grassroots supporters for too long.
Mr Mornah said the leadership recognised the urgent need to revitalise the party’s structures, strengthen internal organisation and reconnect with ordinary Ghanaians frustrated with the country’s political direction.
He accused both the NDC and NPP of failing to address the worsening economic hardships confronting citizens despite recent improvements in some macroeconomic indicators.
Describing the two dominant parties as “two of the same kind,” he argued that ordinary Ghanaians were still struggling with unemployment, low incomes and economic uncertainty even as inflation eased and the cedi showed relative stability.
Mr Mornah also criticised what he described as the continued foreign control of Ghana’s natural resources, insisting that successive governments had failed to ensure that the country’s wealth benefited its citizens.
He maintained that the persistent blame game between the NDC and NPP had contributed little to national development and said the PNC intended to offer a fresh political alternative focused on economic empowerment and national transformation.
According to him, the outcome of the Kumasi meeting had injected renewed energy into the party and would soon lead to a more active and visible PNC across the country.
The meeting brought together regional chairmen from across Ghana to deliberate on internal party challenges, reorganisation strategies and preparations towards rebuilding the PNC’s grassroots support base ahead of the 2028 elections.
