Tamale, Ghana – Fifty-eight members of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) in the Tatale Sanguli constituency of the Northern Region have been suspended from the party.
The suspension, announced in a letter signed by the constituency chairman, stems from allegations that these members did not support the official party candidate during recent elections, a violation of party rules.
One of the suspended members, Napare Prosper, a former communication officer for the constituency, has denied the allegations.
He stated that he did not campaign against the party candidate and demanded a fair hearing to address the accusations.
“I have seen the letter on social media saying that I have been suspended for not supporting the MP, but I want to state on record that I did not campaign against the duly confirmed candidate,” Prosper said. “I did not in any way breach any of the party’s constitution so they should give us a fair hearing.”
