The Deputy General Secretary of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), Haruna Mohammed has urged delegates of the party in the Northern Region to vote massively for Justin Kodua Frimpong to be retained as the General Secretary of the party.
According to him, Mr. Kodua has diligently served the NPP since he was elected in 2022 and will continue to work assiduously to bring the party back to power.
He revealed the ultimate duty of his boss is to ensure that the party’s Presidential Candidate, Dr Mahamudu Bawumia win the 2028 general election as President of Ghana.
Addressing NPP executives in Tamale, Mr. Mohammed disclosed the NPP Chief Scribe prior to the 2024 general elections played an instrumental role across the constituencies, adding he supported the constituencies in the region with logistics to campaign and personally participated in the activities of some of the constituencies.
“Myself and Kwayaja, we divided the constituencies between us and he [Justin Kodua] was the one who funded us to go round the various constituencies to support them.
“My brothers and sister, vote for Lawyer Kodua because you have me with him. All that I am doing, I have his full backing and that is why I always do what I am doing” he added.
For his part, the NPP Northern Regional Chairman, Adam Mohammed Baantima Samba said the party failed to listen to the early warning signs of the General Secretary resulting in the 2024 loss.
He argued that if the government had listened to his advice, the NPP wouldn’t have been in opposition today.
“All the ideas he brought to this party, we rejected it all and that is why we lost. When he brought the issue of a reshuffle to the National Council, the government rejected and people are now coming to blame him” he stated.
Justin Kodua has been engaging the NPP electorates nationwide to seek their mandate for his second tenure as General Secretary. The Northern Region appears fertile for Mr. Kodua as both regional and constituency executives in the region warmly embraced his message.
Meanwhile, the NPP is expected to go to the polls on
