NPP Internal Tensions Rise: Bono Regional Organizer Slams Colleague Organizers Over Unilateral Statement

The New Patriotic Party (NPP) is experiencing internal strife as the Bono Regional Organizer, Evans Afari Gyan Yeboah, distances himself from a statement issued by all Regional Organizers condemning a party member, Koka, for making “unguided and unfortunate statements” about party leadership.

In a separate statement, Yeboah expressed disappointment that the collective statement was crafted and circulated without consultation or prior notification to key stakeholders, describing the move as “a form of indiscipline and disrespect to the very structures the statement seeks to defend.”

The original statement accused Koka of issuing threats against party officers and called for disciplinary action. However, Yeboah argued that Regional Organizers must act as unifiers and facilitators, not as conduits for predetermined narratives or decisions taken without broader input.

He emphasized that the party requires sober leadership, inclusive dialogue, and coordinated action to realize its goals. According to Yeboah, Regional Organizers should refocus on strengthening the reorganization process, deepening internal consultations, and ensuring all voices within the party—whether popular or dissenting—are respected.

Significantly, Yeboah also pointed out that the controversial statement appears to have been issued under the pretext of advancing an agenda to whip Regional Organizers into supporting a particular candidate. He cautioned that such attempts must be avoided, stressing that organizers should be allowed to make their choices based on their “own conscience, free will, and accord,” without undue influence or coercion.

As a prominent figure in the NPP’s regional hierarchy, Yeboah’s remarks underscore the importance of unity, transparency, and effective communication within the party. His call for inclusiveness and teamwork is viewed as an attempt to safeguard internal democracy and maintain cohesion at a crucial moment.

The NPP has been undergoing reorganization efforts, and this internal conflict may affect the momentum the party hopes to build. The leadership may now face increasing pressure to intervene and restore harmony among members.

Meanwhile, the original statement from the Regional Organizers reiterated the need for discipline and respect within the party, emphasizing hierarchy, procedure, and teamwork. It urged members to prioritize unity, harmony, and collective strength rather than engaging in threats, emotional outbursts, or unguided commentary.
