Former John Agyekum Kufuor chief of staff, Kwadwo Mpiani has said that President Nana Akufo-Addo is a contributing factor to the challenges facing the ruling New Patriotic Party (NPP).
After the unlawful dismissal of the previous National Chairman Paul Afoko and the former General Secretary Kwabena Agyapong, according to Mr. Mpiani, the NPP’s issues grew worse.
Mpiani asserts that when the party’s two leaders were ousted, the party’s affairs were essentially transferred to one individual.
“Well, to some extent yes. You know, I think the party’s problems deepened the very day the party decided to sack its Chairman [Paul Afoko] and General Secretary [Kwabena Agyapong], which I believe was unconstitutional under our own party rules, but then the party did it,” Mr Mpiani said in an interview on Joy News.
“Unfortunately, some members, including members of the group to which I belong, take pride in this by saying that they were able to remove these people. As soon as the party removed these people, they gave the party to one man who was the candidate at that time, and who is the President at this time, and this is the problem we have in the party which we are not confronting. And if we don’t confront this problem, we are going to have more problems within the party.”
“What I am saying is that there was this problem, and the party in its wisdom decided to give the party to the Candidate Akufo-Addo, who’s now President Akufo-Addo.”
