Okaikwei Central MP, Patrick Yaw Boamah, has disclosed that former President John Agyekum Kufuor is increasingly uneasy about the direction and internal discipline of the NPP.
He described the party's current state as a matter of serious concern for the elder statesman.
In an interview on Channel One TV on Monday, June 23, Mr Boamah recounted a recent conversation with the former President during the funeral of retired Justice Sulemana Gbadegbe.
He revealed that Mr Kufuor’s first concern was about the well-being of the party.
“He is worried about the state of the party, that I can tell you for free,” Mr Boamah noted.
“I saw him on Friday at late Justice Gbadegbe’s funeral. The first question he’ll ask you is, 'How is the party front?' Because it is the party that made him. It is part of him, so he must be worried, Bernard,” he added.
Mr Boamah has joined growing calls within the NPP for stronger internal leadership, urging the party’s current national executives to act decisively to restore order, unity, and public trust.
He warned that the lack of discipline and strategic direction is hurting the party’s image and undermining its credibility among Ghanaians.
The Okaikwei Central MP lamented what he sees as the loss of firm leadership that previously guided the party.
He argued that the NPP’s historical strength lay in its ability to self-correct, even at the highest levels of leadership.
“We’ve been used to strong chairmen who could correct even the flagbearer or marshal his National Executive Officers to sit the president or the flagbearer down to put in place some arrangement for the betterment of the party,” he stated.
