Report by Edward FRIMPONG
For the flagrant breach of the New Patriotic Party’s Constitution particularly Articles 3(5)(A)(4) and 3(9)(1), the leadership of the NPP has expunged Hopeson Adorye, Yaw Buabeng Asamoah, Nana Ohene Ntow and Boniface Abubakar Saddique from holding themselves out as members of the NPP.
A release signed by the Party’s General Secretary, Justin Kodua Frimpong said a member of the party who stands as an independent candidate against the officially elected member of the party or who joins or declares his or her support for another political party, or for an independent candidate when the party has sponsored a candidate in a general or by-election automatically forfeits his or her membership of the party.
The statement said in line with the Party’s Constitutional Provisions Article 3(5) (A) (4),  the Party’s Constitution enjoins all members of the party to abide by and publicly uphold the decisions of the party while Article 3(9) (1) of the Constitution oppose a member of the Party who publicly endorse and canvass for support for an independent candidate in the aftermath of the officially elected member of the Party.
The statement said in view of the forfeiture of membership pursuant to the provision of Article 3(9)(1) of the Party’s Constitution they have automatically forfeited their membership of the Party and are therefore, no longer members of the Party.
“The NPP entreats its members to remain true to their duties as per Article 3(5) of the Party Constitution.We further call upon our members to bear in mind that the Party’s focus is to unite its ranks and rally the support of Ghanaians to make history by winning the 2024 general election”, the statement concluded.
