On 1st July, 2006, there was a Press conference in Accra at the Teachers’ Hall, announcing the formation of a new Political Party with the name GHANA NATIONAL PARTY. In the press statement, the Executive Chairman of the Party Mr. Ofori Ampofo in his address, said that the Ghanaian political system needs cleaning and that the Ghana National Party has been formed to carry out the needed cleaning with no ambiguity.

The cost of not doing this now will be too high for future generations and there will be no enviable legacy we will leave behind for them to build upon. We must create a culture of Planning, Productivity, Punctuality, Preventive maintenance and putting away money (long term savings) in our national character, and then gradually build on these positive attributes to eventually move away from the habit of reckless borrowing, to economic self reliance

ERA OF A NEW BIGINING: We believe there are people with equally good intentions, who have returned home to join the old political elites, but because they could not influence them for change, they have joined them to loot the country. We know some of these people, who and what they were before they joined the old Political elites, and we have heard all about their Political activities and wealth today. This is why we believe a completely new political party is inevitable and in the best interest of an era of a new beginning.

We are prepared to sacrifice in an era of a new beginning in Ghanaian Politics; we will revolutionalize our political direction to win our economic war. This is not a military revolution, but nonetheless, we will be tough on economic saboteurs in discipline and a sense purpose. The Ghana National Party will pursue a careful and disciplined financial administration and monitor the use of the resources of the country, at the district, regional and national levels of Government, and do whatever it takes to detect and punish corrupt officials. A sound economic policy will be hinged on the priorities of the country, which will have to translate into the pockets of the citizenry to be able to afford the ordinary necessities of life. That is the only way we can measure the successes of our economic policies, and not a few greedy people building mansions and riding in luxury cars. Fellow Ghanaians, there are some dedicated and selfless individuals in Ghana who are prepared to team up with a completely new Leadership whose hands are not tainted, and are dedicated to the development of our country. The leadership of the Ghana National Party has set itself to the challenges facing our Country, and invites our citizens to visit our web site to learn more about the Party, at www.natlparty.com

We invite every Ghanaian, especially those in the Diaspora interested in moving back home and interested in serving their country in any capacity, to register and join us, at info@natlparty.com . Let us go home and in dedication, sacrifice and leave a promising country for our children.

CAN WE STAND THE CHALLENGES? Do not think about the impossibilities. There is nothing impossible in this world and there is nothing impossible in Politics. Registering a Political Party in Ghana is very cumbersome and expensive; however, we have been able to pass through the challenges and secured the birth certificate of the Party of the Century. The party of the people, by the people, and for the people. WE would appeal and encourage all selfless Ghanaians to be proud to be part of a good, noble, sincere, selfless, and dedicated cause for change.

The road ahead for the Ghana National Party is very challenging, and will be rough indeed, but with determination, we would be able to carve a tunnel of hope through a mountain of despair and move our people out of the state of hopelessness and economic enslavement.

LET US THEREFORE CONTRIBUTE FINANCIALLY, MORALLY AND SPRITUALLY TOWARDS OUR COUNTRY’S SALVATION.

We have only one God given Country, and that is Ghana. We must therefore in our lifetime while we can, do our best for its development, for generations to come and enjoy; when we will be long gone. There are more than three million Ghanaians in the Diaspora. Your financial contribution to the National economy is highly recognized, but that is not enough. Ghana needs some of her most dedicated and selfless sons and daughters to move back home to help manage the country, with your best brains. Let us manage to brake through the monopoly of the old political order. Unless you are satisfied with the way politicians have been conducting the business of the country for the last decade and more, support this call for change. This is a Country call, others have done it, so we can also do it; and we should not fail. Thank you and God bless you for supporting a good cause.

AMPOFO OFORI (EXECUTIVE CHAIRMAN) FOR AND ON BEHALF OF GHANA NATIONAL PARTY.
