NPP sacks Hopeson Adorye, Buaben Asamoah and 2 others for supporting Alan Kyeremanten.
The New Patriotic Party (NPP) has rescinded the membership of four top people for their support of Alan Kojo Kyeremanten.
According to a press release from the party, Yaw Buaben Asamoa, Nana Ohene Ntow, Hopeson Adorye, and Boniface Abubakar Saddique are longer members of the ruling party for supporting the former Minister of Trade and Industry.
The statement, signed by General Secretary Justin Kodua Frimpong, cites this endorsement as a breach of the party’s constitution, particularly Articles 3(5) (A)(4) and 3(9)(1).
These articles emphasize members’ obligation to abide by and publicly uphold the decisions of the party.
The press release highlights the party’s awareness of the activities of the four individuals and notes their persistent association with the NPP despite their breach of the party’s constitution.
It concludes by clarifying that their actions go against the principles of the party and, as a result, their membership has been forfeited.
“The leadership of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) has taken notice of recent activities of Hopeson Adorye, Yaw Buaben Asamoa, Nana Ohene Ntow, and Boniface Abubakar Saddique which includes publicly endorsing the candidature of a person other than the duly elected Presidential Candidate of the Party; Dr. Alhaji Mahamudu Bawumia.”
“Despite their flagrant breach of the Party’s Constitution particularly Articles 3(5) (A)(4) and 3(9)(1), the afore-named men still hold themselves out as members of the NPP.”
