The National Executive Committee first took the decision, which was subsequently approved by the National Council at a meeting held on Thursday, June 25, 2026.
The conference will be held at the national level and will centre primarily on the election of new national officers.
The party described the exercise as central to its commitment to constitutional governance and internal democratic processes.
"As the Party prepares for its National Delegates Conference, it remains committed to constitutionalism, internal democracy, and the rule of law, ensuring adherence to the Party Constitution and its democratic traditions," the statement read.
The September conference is widely expected to shape the NPP's internal reorganisation as the party positions itself ahead of future national elections.
NPP invites constitutional amendment proposals
Alongside the conference announcement, Justin Kodua Frimpong formally invited submissions for proposed amendments to the party's constitution, citing Article 19(2) as the basis for the process.
Party members and stakeholders have been directed to submit their proposals either in person to the Office of the General Secretary at NPP National Headquarters in Accra-North or electronically via nppconstitutional.amendment@gmail.com. The deadline for all submissions is Friday, July 17, 2026.
The party said the constitutional review is aimed at strengthening its structures, improving internal democratic processes and promoting more effective governance within the organisation.
