The results of the 2024 presidential elections have not been kind to the New Patriotic Party (NPP), and as the dust settles, key party figures are reflecting on the loss and planning for the future. Mr. Ntim, a prominent NPP figure, expressed the disappointment that many in the party feel.
“There is no doubt that the outcome of the elections is not what we wished for,” he said.
“The party will set up an election review committee in January 2025 to engage stakeholders and analyze the factors leading to our defeat, paving the way for reforms.”
This decision signals the NPP’s commitment to reevaluating its strategies and structure, acknowledging that something needs to change if the party is to regain momentum in the upcoming years.
However, it’s clear that the road ahead will require more than just introspection; it will require actionable changes to their leadership selection processes.
One such critic of the party’s current system is the outgoing Member of Parliament for Asante Akim North, Kwame Andy Appiah Kubi.
During an interview on TV3’s Keypoint, Appiah Kubi didn’t mince words when discussing the flaws within the NPP’s constitution.
“Monetisation in the NPP will not bring out the best candidates for leadership roles,” he declared, emphasizing that the party’s outdated and flawed processes were a key factor contributing to its failure.
