Confusion has emerged within the NPP ahead of its National Delegates Conference after a High Court writ surfaced listing two party members as plaintiffs in a suit against the party, one of whom has disassociated himself from the case.
The writ, issued from the High Court in Accra and dated July 17, 2025, names Shamsudeen Iddrisu of Walewale and Boateng Kwadwo of Bantama as plaintiffs, with the NPP(National Headquarters) as the defendant.
The document orders the party to respond to the suit within eight days.
However, in a swift reaction Thursday evening, Shamsudeen Iddrisu issued a public statement disowning the lawsuit.
He stated that he had no knowledge of the writ and had not authorised any legal representation on his behalf.
“I entreat the public to disregard the writ as I have not instructed any lawyer to do this on my behalf,” he wrote.
“As a committed member of the NPP, I have absolute respect for the decisions of the National Council and would not use the courts to undermine such decisions.”
Mr Iddrisu reaffirmed his loyalty to the party and expressed anticipation for the upcoming National Delegates Conference scheduled for this weekend at the University of Ghana.
The writ appears to challenge recent decisions by the party’s National Council, though details of the claims are not included in the visible portion of the court document.
The second named plaintiff, Boateng Kwadwo, has not yet commented publicly on the matter.
