Sefwi NPP threatens to collapse party if…
There is tension brewing among members of the New Patriotic Party (NPP)
in Sehwi Akontombra over the appointment of District Chief Executive (DCE).
Party hierarchy, members, the council of elders have threatened to
collapse the NPP in the constituency if their DCE,
Yawson Amoah is not retained.
Per their checks, some members are lobbying high seats to have
the DCE removed and a different person nominated.
The party hierarchy has threatened to pull down all party paraphernalia
if the Akufo-Addo-led government does not listen to them.
The constituency chairman, Isaac Ekyea-Addae, and other executives,
at a press briefing, explained that Akontombra used to be
a world bank for the National Democratic Congress
until Mr Amoah’s appointment.

They said Mr Amoah fought a good battle for the NPP to retain their
seat in 2017, as well as 2020 elections, by mobilizing the grassroots
supporters to vote massively for the party.
Mr Ekyea-Addae continued that their fury is stemmed from the fact
that the president failed to appoint Member of Parliament,
Alex Djornuboah as a Minister, and will not watch for
similar fate to happen to their DCE.
Also, the constituency Women’s Organizer, Hajia Assana Seibah,
appealed to the president to listen to the cry of the party’s grassroots
and appoint someone who can bring togetherness in the party.
