The New Patriotic Party (NPP) in the Tatale Sanguli constituency of the Northern Region has suspended 58 members over allegations of failing to support the party’s official candidate in the recently concluded elections.

A letter signed by the constituency chairman and addressed to the national and regional executives, which was seen by Myjoyononline.com, claims the members acted against the party’s candidate during the elections.

The chairman stated that this conduct contravenes the NPP’s constitution, leading to the decision to suspend the accused members.

One of the suspended individuals, Napare Prosper, a former communication officer for the constituency, has refuted the allegations.

He issued an ultimatum to the constituency chairman, demanding that evidence of the accusations be provided within 24 hours, and called for a fair hearing on the matter.

“I have seen the suspension letter circulating on social media, alleging that I campaigned against the MP. I want to categorically state that I did not engage in any activity that undermined the party’s candidate,” Mr Prosper asserted.

“I have not breached any provisions of the party’s constitution, and I demand a transparent process to clear my name.”
