He stated that candidates for National Chairman will pay GHC50,000, Vice Chairpersons GHC30,000, and General Secretary GHC 25,000.

Mr. Kodua emphasized that all national officer elections will be governed by digital guidelines prepared in consultation with the National Executive Committee, and these guidelines will be presented in due course.
He warned that aspirants must campaign on issues, avoid personal attacks or vilification of opponents, and refrain from any activity that could polarize the party along tribal, religious, or other divisive lines.
Supporters of aspirants are also expected to follow these rules.
