The timelines were outlined at a press conference on Wednesday, February 18, by the party’s General Secretary, Justin Kodua Frimpong.
According to him, the processes and procedures for the national executive elections will begin with the opening and closing of nominations from August 10 to 14, 2026.
Filing of nominations will take place from August 15 to 17, while vetting of aspirants is scheduled for August 20 to 23.
The vetting report will be presented on August 25, with appeals to be heard from August 28 to 29.
“The national executive elections are as follows: The processes and procedures, opening and closing of nominations shall be from August 10 -14, filing of nominations shall be on August 15-17, vetting of aspirants August 20-23, reading of vetting report shall be on August 25, appeals shall be taken from August 28-29.

Mr. Kodua Frimpong also disclosed that the tenure of office of some party officials will expire during the electoral period.
He said their mandates have been extended to cover polling station executives, constituency executives, branch executives, electoral area coordinators and regional executives to avoid disruptions to the process.
He explained that the extension is intended to ensure a smooth and orderly conduct of the party’s internal elections.
“This will help not to distort the elections,” he said.
