HOPE (Honesty, Opportunity, Performance and Empowerment) has bowed out of the 2025 general election.
“Today, two weeks before nomination day we have not garnered the momentum and support necessary to carve out a winnable space for HOPE in the upcoming General Election. Consequently, we have decided to withdraw from the 2025 election campaign,” the party said in a statement, signed by leader Timothy Hamel-Smith.
HOPE had been in discussions with NTA and the Community Reformation Network (CRN) about an alliance with a view to contesting the elections. But on Monday HOPE said it was “with profound disappointment” that it was making the announcement that it was not engaging in the 2025 general election.
