The chief executive officer of the Youth Employment Agency (YEA), Lawyer Justin Kodua Frimpong has said, for the New Patriotic Party to break the eight years in office record, the party needs to lay a good foundation in its internal Election in 2022.
According to, if the structure and process are free, fair, and transparent, the party will break through in the 2024 Presidential and Parliamentary Election.
In an interview with Citi TV’s Face to face show monitored by mybrytfmonline.com, Lawyer Justin Kodua Frimpong said the 2024 Election is about records in NPP’s eight years in office compared to the leading opposition party (NDC), but if there is division after the NPP’s internal Election, the party will struggle for victory.
He said the NPP had never had a bad presidential candidate, but the main challenge is bad managers of the party and called leaders of the party to start working on their Internal Election immediately.
