The national leadership of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) has disassociated itself from remarks made by two of its regional chairmen, stressing that their statements do not represent the values or principles of the party.
In a press release dated September 28, 2025, and signed by General Secretary Justin Kodua Frimpong, the party urged the public to disregard comments by Ashanti Regional Chairman Bernard Antwi Boasiako and Bono Regional Chairman Kwame Baffoe, popularly known as Abronye DC.
The statement addressed two issues. First was Mr Baffoe’s claim in a televised interview that he could influence the compilation of polling station albums. The party rejected the claim, insisting that no individual has the authority to control that process.
“The Party wishes to emphasize that the compilation of polling station albums will follow clear and transparent procedures, to be issued by the National Secretariat at the appropriate time, ensuring integrity, fairness, and credibility,” the release said.
The second issue related to Mr Boasiako’s allegation that fixing the presidential primaries for January 31, 2026, was intended to favour a particular aspirant. The NPP described this as false, clarifying that the early congress was a strategic decision.
“The decision to hold an early congress is solely to provide the Party with ample time and strategic advantage to reorganise, reposition, and prepare to recapture power in 2028,” the statement explained.
The party leadership reaffirmed its commitment to internal democracy, transparency, and fairness in all its processes.
