General Secretary for the New Patriotic Party, Justin Kodua Frimpong
The New Patriotic Party (NPP) says it is currently engaging all disgruntled members who have announced to contest as independent parliamentary candidates in the upcoming 2024 elections.
Addressing a press conference on Tuesday, September 10, 2024, the General Secretary of the party, Justin Frimpong Kodua, said the party will continue to engage all those who have announced their intention to contest as independent candidates.
He said the party, under the leadership of National Chairman Stephen Ayensu Ntim, has organised one of the most credible parliamentary primaries in the history of the party.
“As a party, led by the National Chairman, Mr. Stephen Ayesu Ntim. When we took over the reign as national officers, we made it a point that ensure that there is a free, fair election in our parliamentary primary and the media can attest to it, that we organise one of the best parliamentary primaries the party has ever had.
“And the results were very clear that the people decided on who they wanted to become our parliamentary candidate in the various respective constituencies.”
“So anyone who goes to elections always has the idea that it’s either the person who wins or the person who may also lose. So as a party and a true patron, we expect that everyone who went to elections and couldn’t win will support the one who won.
“But in the case of all those who have gone as independent, the party will continue to engage them to the latter, where we realise that maybe there’s nothing more that we can do, but we still have hope that all is not lost and we shall continue to engage our members who have gone independent.”
