2028 Is a Political Battlefield and Julius Debrah Is the NDC’s Strongest Weapon.
This is not the time for experiments. This is not the season for hesitation. 2028 will be a full-scale political battlefield, and if the National Democratic Congress (NDC) is serious about a crushing, unmistakable victory, then the choice is clear and non-negotiable: Hon. Julius Debrah must be the flagbearer.
Politics is about power how to win it, how to defend it, and how to keep it. Julius Debrah understands power.
As Ghana’s Chief of Staff, he sits at the engine room of governance, controlling the levers, reading the terrain, anticipating threats, and neutralizing them before they explode.
This is not armchair politics. This is command-level leadership. And that is exactly why the NPP fears his rise, whether they admit it publicly or not.
Make no mistake: the NPP is already calculating. They know that a Julius Debrah-led NDC is not an easy target.
He is disciplined. He is strategic. He does not fight blindly. He fights to win. In a political era where noise is often mistaken for strength, Debrah brings something far more dangerous to the opposition focus and control.
Within the NDC, the message must be blunt: only a political general can defend power, not a learner, not a crowd-pleaser, not a gamble.
Julius Debrah has been tested under pressure. He has survived internal storms and external attacks.
He knows where the skeletons are buried both his party’s and the opposition’s. That knowledge is power, and power wins elections.
A Debrah candidacy would electrify the NDC base. It would signal seriousness. It would tell floating voters that the party is not playing games with Ghana’s future.
It would also expose the NPP, because once the campaign shifts from slogans to records, from insults to governance, the opposition will be forced onto the defensive.
This is why 2028 scares the NPP if Julius Debrah is on the ballot. He cannot be bullied. He cannot be rushed. He cannot be outmaneuvered easily.
He knows the state, he knows the party, and he knows the opposition. That combination is lethal in electoral politics.
History rewards parties that choose strength over sentiment.
The NDC stands at that crossroads now. If the party wants a massive victory, not a narrow escape; if it wants to retain power, not beg for it; if it wants to break the NPP politically, not just defeat them, then the decision must be ruthless and clear.
Julius Debrah is coming.
And if the NDC is wise, it will march into 2028 with him at the front ready for war, ready to win.
