SAVE NPP NOW.: CALL FOR WAIVER — GIVE KWABENA AGYEI AGYEPONG RELIEF FROM THE GH₵4,000,000.00 DEVELOPMENT FEE.

SAVE NPP NOW.: CALL FOR WAIVER — GIVE KWABENA AGYEI AGYEPONG RELIEF FROM THE GH₵4,000,000.00 DEVELOPMENT FEE. We, the concerned members of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), humbly appeal to the Elections Committee and the National Executive Committee (NEC) overseeing the upcoming Presidential Primaries on January 31, 2026, to grant Ing Kwabena Agyei Agyepong a waiver on the GH₵4,000,000.00 development fee to enable his participation in the primaries. Our humble request is based on fairness, equity, and the enduring service Ing Agyepong has rendered to the Party. The development fee should not serve as a barrier to any aspirant, particularly when it has no constitutional basis and therefore should not be compulsory. We recall that in 2015, the Party unfairly suspended Mr. Kwabena Agyei Agyepong without just cause. Despite his commitment and sacrifices, when the Party won the 2016 elections , he was not given any appointment or recognition for the entire eight-year period. It would there...
"NORTHERNER GOES, NORTHERNER COMES WILL NOT HAPPEN"-DR. BAWUMIA. Dr.MAHAMMUD BAWUMIA  with the greatest of respect don't leave a bad name for your children, grand children and great grand children because of greed. Those around you will not tell you this hard truth because of their personal interest. During 2024 electioneering campaign you Dr Bawumia told Ghanaians especially our brothers and sisters in the Northern part of our country that when Ghanaians voted for a Northerner in 2024 and subsequently became the President of Ghana in 2025, there would be no way Ghanaians would vote for another Northerner in 2028 which was purely the truth so why now? Don't forget your father Alhaji Mumuni Bawumia had a record of betrayal against this same UP tradition so don't leave a bad record for your children too in the near future. Appreciate what NPP has done for you, remember where they took you from and where you are today and be content with what you have achieved for yo...

Speaking after his victory, Baidoo expressed confidence that his win was never in doubt despite doubts from some quarters. “I was very aware and c...
WHEN TYRANNY WEARS THE CLOAK OF DEMOCRACY. From The Desk of A Patriot, Kwaku Antwi-Agyei,Esq If you did not see this coming,then you probably may have been living on another planet. In fact,we did not need a prophet or a soothsayer to predict that the hapless Justice Gertrude Araba Esaaba Sackey Torkornoo  was going to suffer the fate she has suffered on the 1st day of September,2025 The whole episode began to take shape on a political platform when NDC was in opposition during the campaign era where the current President himself stoked the embers for the removal of the CJ. The drama kept unfolding until it took its final shape from a number of petitions for the removal of the embattled CJ.  Today,history has been made to crumble the independence of the judiciary. A hand of an intruder has punctured an otherwise stalwart judicial arm of government. The light of justice has been dimmed by the executive arm of government in a manner unprecedented in the anals of Ghana’s fledglin...

President John Dramani Mahama has Reaffirmed He Will Not Contest 2028 Election.

President John Dramani Mahama has Reaffirmed He Will Not Contest 2028 Election. The President of Ghana John Dramani Mahama has again reaffirmed his commitment to Ghana’s two-term presidential limit, insisting that he will not appear on the ballot in 2028. President John Dramani Mahama has reaffirmed his adherence to Ghana’s two-term presidential limit, stating that his absence from the 2028 ballot will put him in a stronger position to enforce fiscal discipline and curb the perennial election-year overspending that has fuelled cyclical economic crises. Speaking during a bilateral meeting with Singaporean President Tharman Shanmugaratnam on a three-day state visit, President Mahama decried the practice of incumbent governments circumventing fiscal safeguards to curry favour with voters.  He pledged to hold the line in the run-up to the 2028 polls, stressing: “I will not be a candidate in the next elections and therefore I can hold the line when it comes to fiscal discipline.” He als...
From The Desk Of A Patriot, Kwaku Antwi-Agyei, Esq . THE DILEMMA OF THE NDC GOVERNMENT REGARDING ACQUISITION OF PRESIDENTIAL JET. I am not an expert, so I leave the technical aspect for those who are trained to deal with it.  However, I am a fully-fledged Ghanaian, and for that reason, matters of national interest affect me; that is why I have the  desire to share my views on such matters.  Former President Akufo-Addo was heavily battered,insulted, and virtually demonized by zealous and power-drunk propagandists. Prominent among them was Okudjeto Ablakwa, who saw it as an opportunity to use the issue of the Presidential Jet to launch his dimmed political light back into flame. Ablakwa may have succeeded with getting the average Ghanaian hoodwinked and scored political points for that adventure. But hey, what about our national pride  and the safety of our president? That is where Ablakwa nailed himself and his NDC party. Because they are now in power but caught in a ...

The Member of Parliament for Sunyani West Constituency in the Bono Region, Millicent Yeboah Amankwah, has received accolades for her tireless efforts in addressing social and economic challenges affecting her constituents.  A notable example of her commitment is the asphalting of Odomasi roundabout to the former court through to Fiapre road, which passes in front of the Odomssi palace. On 28th July, the MP, Millicent Yeboah Amankwah, and the Bono Regional Minister, Joseph Addae Akwaboa esq. inspected the road as constructing asphalting commences.

SAVE NPP NOW: NPP General Secretary's Resignation Urged Amidst Concerns Over Leadership.

SAVE NPP NOW: NPP General Secretary's Resignation Urged Amidst Concerns Over Leadership. FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE A concern members  of NPP today calls for the immediate resignation of Justin Frimpong Kodua as the General Secretary of the New Patriotic Party (NPP). This demand stems from concerns over his leadership and decision-making processes, which have raised serious questions about his competence in the role. Specifically, the abrupt announcement regarding the party's withdrawal from the Ablekuma election without thorough research or consultation has sparked widespread criticism. This decision not only reflects poorly on Mr. Kodua's leadership but also undermines the party's credibility and unity. Furthermore, Mr. Kodua's inability to effectively manage internal party affairs and communicate transparently with members has eroded trust in his ability to lead. As a result, we believe his continued tenure as General Secretary would be detrimental to the party's ...

Leadership crisis remains a major contributing factor causing the misfortunes of the New Patriotic Party in the Bono Region, according to the former Bono Regional NPP communication director, Asare Bediako Seth.  Asare Bediako Seth, known as ABS, says the Bono Regional chairman, Mr. Kwame Bafoe has sidelined majority of regional executives with a divide and rule approach in his tenure.

Asare Bediako Seth made these revelations on "Issues on Ark FM," which was monitired by Alrich24newsgh.blogspot.com news portal, a political discussion show hosted by Mr. Kwasi...

SAVE NPP NOW: THE INDISCIPLINE IN NPP MUST CEASE.

SAVE NPP NOW: THE INDISCIPLINE IN NPP MUST CEASE. It is becoming unbecoming, how can the National Chairman speak before the former flagbearer speak.  The National Chairman should speak last in all party programs.So the organizers of the program especially the National Organizer and the General Secretary should show some level of respect to the National Chairman.What happened in Kumasi should not be repeated   any where  According to Hon.Gideon Boako the whole program i.e  the thank you tour is solely financed by Dr.Bawumia so if it is Dr. Bawumia's agenda let us know.In 2021 during our Constitutional amendment in Kumasi Dr.Mahammud Bawumia Intentionally waited for President to sit before he Bawumia arrived. He came and did the same thing in Assin North bye elections during our last rally,the President sat before he came.  The indiscipline on the side of Dr.Bawumia is too much so far as protocol arrangements is concerned. Mr.Stephen Ayensu Ntim is the Nation...
