The New Patriotic Party (NPP) has clarified that the former Dome-Kwabenya Member of Parliament, Sarah Adwoa Safo, was officially informed of the postponement of her disciplinary hearing.

Speaking on The Pulse on JoyNews on Monday, April 7, the Deputy General Secretary of the NPP, Haruna Mohammed, said the party followed due process in communicating the postponement of the disciplinary hearing to Adwoa Safo.

“I can confirm that a letter was delivered to her regarding the postponement. I personally received her at the party headquarters today because we were holding a separate meeting on electoral matters from the 2024 general elections. While there, I heard some noise outside and went to find out what was happening. It turned out she had come in response to the earlier invitation,” he stated.

Mr Mohammed explained that he met with Adwoa Safo on behalf of the General Secretary today at the party's Headquarters and reminded her of the letter. “Her aide had the letter. Her lawyer also received it and even confirmed it to the person who delivered it,” he stated.

Despite this, Adwoa Safo reportedly claimed she had not seen the letter. But the party maintains that both her aide and her lawyer acknowledged receiving it. “We even have electronic confirmation from the lawyer,” Mr Mohammed added.

He further clarified that the disciplinary committee, which is a standing committee of the party’s National Council, independently issues such letters, not the General Secretary.

"It is not going to be a debate between us and Adwoa Sarfo because she is a senior member of the party, a former Member of Parliament, a former Minister.

"The key point is that the meeting was postponed, and she will be informed through the committee’s secretary, Patrick Boamah, when a new date is set,” Mr Mohammed said.
