ACCRA, September 21, 2026— The Base Movement (TBM) has taken a major step towards strengthening its organisational, communications and administrative structures ahead of its stated 2028 political mission with the launch of an online radio platform, a new website and an administrative and operations manual.
The three-part launch took place on Monday, September 21, 2026, at the movement’s national headquarters in Tesano, Accra, during a ceremony attended by members, youth activists and supporters, including participants from the Ghanaian diaspora.
The event was addressed by the movement’s Chief Operations Coordinator and head of its National Coordinating Committee (NCC), Mr. Jacob Osei Yeboah, who described the launch as an important milestone in TBM’s efforts to build what it calls an alternative political organisation.
The ceremony coincided with Kwame Nkrumah Memorial Day and the 117th birthday anniversary of Ghana’s first President, Dr. Osagyefo Kwame Nkrumah, a coincidence the movement used to highlight its stated commitment to economic transformation and political change.
Mr. Yeboah said the occasion represented more than the opening of a media facility, describing the new platforms as tools intended to improve communication, membership mobilisation, administration and public engagement as the movement prepares for its long-term political objectives.
“Fellow Citizens of Ghana, dynamic Youth of our Nation, and Dedicated Members of The Base Movement across the Globe, today we stand at a historic, unshakeable crossroads,” he said in his opening remarks.
According to Mr. Yeboah, the new online radio studio is expected to provide TBM with a dedicated platform for communicating its programmes, activities and policy positions to audiences in Ghana and abroad.
He said the movement would use the platform to expand its digital presence across social media channels including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook, X and YouTube, while the newly unveiled website, www.thebasemovement.org.gh, would serve as its central digital platform.
Mr. Yeboah also presented the TBM Administrative Structures and Operations Manual as a key component of the launch, saying the document was designed to provide a framework for the administration and coordination of the movement from the national level through regional, constituency and polling-station structures.
He said the structures were intended to promote collective decision-making rather than concentrate authority in one individual, stressing that TBM would operate through committees at various levels.
“Our system does not believe in individual dictators but works strictly on committees for collective glory,” he said, adding that the movement’s structures would provide mechanisms for participation at different organisational levels.
The Chief Operations Coordinator also outlined changes to the movement’s digital membership infrastructure, explaining that the NCC had taken steps to consolidate its online operations following what he described as technical difficulties after the July 3 Mega Walk in the Ashanti Region.
He disclosed that a meeting involving the APP A and APP C teams, the ICT resolution team, the NCC and members of the Board was held on Saturday, September 19, to address the matter.
According to him, the meeting resulted in a decision to discontinue the APP A platform and the previous .com domain and move the movement’s operations to the APP C platform hosted on www.thebasemovement.org.gh
Mr. Yeboah said the new platform would facilitate membership registration for Ghanaians across all 276 constituencies as well as supporters in the diaspora.
He also extended what he described as a reconciliation gesture to the team associated with APP A, saying TBM remained open to merging relevant membership data, while warning that the NCC would consider legal options in jurisdictions including the United Kingdom, United States and Australia if it believed membership data was being improperly withheld or used for personal gain.
On financing, Mr. Yeboah said the movement was introducing digital contribution channels through its website, alongside other payment options, which he said were intended to improve transparency and accountability in the handling of members’ contributions.
“Unlike the NPP and NDC that drain your blood and forget your name, The Base Movement operates on visible justice. From this moment on, your efforts will never be in vain,” he said.
He said members would be able to make contributions through debit and credit cards on the website, the USSD code *415*3475# and Mobile Money merchant number 059 756 7336, while the movement would also operate a system for recognising participation in meetings and membership mobilisation.
Mr. Yeboah further said the movement was positioning its Working Ghana Agenda (WGA) around issues including employment opportunities for young people and support for elderly citizens and pensioners.
He used the occasion to outline TBM’s broader political ambitions, presenting the movement as a potential alternative to Ghana’s established political parties. He specifically criticised the New Patriotic Party (NPP) and National Democratic Congress (NDC), accusing them of operating a political duopoly that, in his view, had not delivered the level of development Ghanaians expect.
“For too long, our beloved nation has been held hostage by this parasitic, self-serving duopoly. The NPP and the NDC have operated like two sides of the same counterfeit coin,” he said.
Mr. Yeboah also told supporters that the movement would remain open to people from other political organisations, including supporters associated with Hon. Alan Kyerematen’s UP+ movement and groups aligned with Hon. Kennedy Agyapong.
He said the organisational work being undertaken by TBM was part of preparations for its longer-term political agenda, culminating in what he described as an effort to propel Hon. Kennedy Agyapong “into the light in 2027.”
Concluding his address, Mr. Yeboah said the movement believed it had overcome earlier organisational difficulties and was now focused on strengthening its structures, expanding its membership and increasing its participation in Ghana’s national policy conversation.
“We are past the storm, we have purged the weaknesses, and we are now dominating the national policy discourse. We are laying the unshakeable foundation today, organizing every territory, as we strategically prepare the ground to propel Hon. Kennedy Agyapong into the light in 2027!” he declared.
