The National Treasurer of the New Patriotic Party, Dr Charles Dwamena, has asked members of the Bawumia 2024 Campaign Team to render accounts on the funds/ logistics allocated to them during the just-ended campaign.
Dr China, as the National Treasurer is popularly known, made the call in a press release on Monday, December 30, 2024, to correct the facts on a misleading publication on the printing of ID cards for executive members of the party in 2022.
Assuring all party members, he said “Any officer be it an executive or a member of the campaign team who was given funds/resources during the 2024 will be made to account for the allocated funds/resources.”
Rendering proper accounts according to him is non-negotiable and that it is an essential part of understanding what really went wrong in the just-ended campaign.
Touching on the issuance of ID cards for party executive members in 2022, Dr China stated that over 90 per cent of ID cards for the executive members from polling stations to the national level have been printed and distributed with the remaining 10 per cent at the party headquarters yet to be collected by the regional secretariats.
Dr China indicated that the issuance of ID cards to executive members has been very successful and that its success has paved the way for the issuance of ID cards to non-executive members which is currently ongoing in the various constituencies.
He therefore encouraged all non-executive members to get registered.
Clearing the air on the management of such donations, he indicated that such donations go into party coffers and not into individual pockets and that it is impossible for one individual to take funds from the party accounts alone.
He said “…the structures and working procedures of the party make it impossible for the National Treasurer to make unilateral decisions let alone spend funds without approval…” and that “…for every expenditure, approval is given by the National Chairman and the General Secretary after which the National Treasurer sees to proper disbursement of such funds.”
Dr Dwamena in his press release appreciated Dr Bawumia, Kennedy Agyapong and other leading party members who have been making donations to support the works of the party.
