NPP Treasurer aspirant involved in accident — campaign suspended

NPP National Treasurer aspirant Collins Nuntwiri Nuamah has been involved in a road accident on the Kwahu Ridge, forcing a temporary suspension of his campaign activities.

The incident occurred at about 8:30 p.m. on Saturday, September 5, 2026, while Nuamah and members of his campaign team were returning from engagements in the Afram Plains North and South areas of the Eastern Region.

Campaign tour takes sudden turn

The campaign vehicle was reportedly heading towards Anyinam, where Nuamah was scheduled to continue his campaign activities on Sunday.

His itinerary included engagements in Atiwa East and Atiwa West, followed by campaign activities in the Kwahu bloc.

However, the accident forced the campaign team to put those plans on hold.

Nuamah receiving medical attention

Following the crash, the campaign of the NPP Treasurer hopeful was temporarily suspended to allow him to receive medical attention.

His campaign team has not provided extensive details about the nature or severity of his injuries, but reports indicate that Nuamah himself was involved in the accident and was receiving medical care.

The team has assured supporters that further updates on his condition and the resumption of his campaign will be communicated in due course.

Dramatic images emerge

Images circulating online reportedly show significant damage to the vehicle involved in the crash, while footage has also emerged showing Nuamah receiving treatment at a medical facility.

The development has triggered concern among NPP supporters, with well-wishers taking to social media to wish the aspirant a speedy recovery.

Four aspirants in the Treasurer race

Nuamah is among the four aspirants cleared to contest the NPP’s 2026 National Treasurer position.

The other candidates are Alfred Kojo Thompson, Tahiru Issahaku Moomin and Ahmed Ruka Saida.

His accident therefore comes at a critical moment for the Treasurer contest, as aspirants intensify their engagements with delegates ahead of the party’s national executive elections.

Campaign suddenly on hold

For now, the political campaign has taken a back seat as attention shifts to Nuamah’s health and recovery.

His supporters will be hoping the accident does not result in serious injuries and that he will soon return to the campaign trail.

One campaign tour. One unexpected crash. And a sudden pause in the race for the NPP National Treasurer position.

For Collins Nuntwiri Nuamah, the immediate priority is now recovery — before the political battle resumes.
