In an Instagram post on January 15, 2026, @prophetbernardelbernard detailed a dream he felt compelled to share with the public. According to the man of God, the vision was vivid and spiritually weighty.

He wrote:

"THE VISION OF THE 5TH FLAGBEARER OF THE NEW PATRIOTIC PARTY.
I found myself in a profound conversation with the Holy Spirit, surrounded by the host of heaven. The atmosphere was sacred and filled with anticipation, as if the future was unfolding before me. As the discussion continued, the Holy Spirit directed my attention to an angel nearby. The angel said, ‘Follow me, and I will show you what is to come.’ "

"I followed immediately. Then the angel declared, ‘A new era is about to begin in the New Patriotic Party. This season will not be led by the usual power centres but by young people and grassroots members. Those who appear unlikely or overlooked will suddenly rise and take centre stage. Kennedy Ohene Agyapong is the fifth flagbearer of the New Patriotic Party. The political order is shifting, and what is coming will surprise those who rely only on logic and tradition. Unexpected instruments will usher in a new chapter.’"

The much-anticipated NPP flagbearship election is scheduled to be held on January 31, 2026.

Dr Bawumia jabs Kennedy Agyapong

YEN.com.gh earlier reported that Former Vice President of Ghana and flagbearer hopeful of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), Dr Mahamudu Bawumia, has reacted to recent attacks on his credibility by fellow aspirant Kennedy Agyapong.

Speaking at a campaign event in the Ashanti Region recently, Dr Bawumia, who was the NPP's 2024 presidential candidate, said his opponents have devised a deliberate strategy to attack his personality and malign his integrity as the flagbearer race draws closer.

The former Vice President further said it has become obvious that he is winning the NPP flagbearer race and that his rivals have resorted to personal attacks to tarnish his image in the eyes of delegates.
