Jacqueline Boatemaa Bonsu, New Patriotic Party's 2024 parliamentary candidate for Nkoranza North,
The New Patriotic Party’s (NPP) 2024 parliamentary candidate for Nkoranza North, Jacqueline Boatemaa Bonsu, has declared her intention to contest the party’s upcoming parliamentary primary ahead of the 2028 general elections.
Madam Bonsu, who has recently been appointed Bono East Regional Vice Chairperson of the NPP, is seeking another opportunity to lead the party into the parliamentary elections after her unsuccessful bid in 2024.
In a declaration of intent under the theme “Together for a Stronger Nkoranza North”, she expressed her determination to continue serving the constituency and contributing to its development.
“With your support and the grace of God, I am determined to serve, bring positive change and work together for a better and brighter Nkoranza North,” she stated.
Development Initiatives
Despite not having held a government position, Madam Bonsu has reportedly undertaken several initiatives in education, youth empowerment, agriculture and women’s development.
Her contributions include educational assistance to students, support for youth empowerment programmes, provision of agricultural inputs to farmers and advocacy for women’s participation in economic and community development.
Beyond these interventions, she has supported the NPP’s organisational activities in the constituency.
In 2019, she donated a Ford four-wheel-drive vehicle to facilitate party operations and contributed towards the construction of the constituency party office.
She has also reportedly provided monthly financial support for constituency activities, demonstrating what her supporters describe as a sustained commitment to strengthening the party’s grassroots structures.
2028 Contest
Having contested the Nkoranza North parliamentary seat in 2024, Madam Bonsu is expected to draw on her previous campaign experience, constituency engagements and contributions to party development as she seeks the mandate of delegates.
Her declaration comes as prospective parliamentary candidates begin positioning themselves ahead of the NPP’s internal elections.
Madam Bonsu has appealed for the support of party members, expressing confidence that collective effort can secure a stronger Nkoranza North and improve the NPP’s electoral prospects in 2028.
