NPP suspends Executive for supporting Independent Candidate

A New Patriotic Party (NPP) Polling Station Executive in the Wulensi Constituency of the Northern Region, Yaw Binkoni has been suspended from the party effective immediately.

This decision comes as a result of his involvement with an Independent Parliamentary Candidate in the Wulensi Constituency, which the party’s leadership deemed a serious violation of the NPP Constitution.

In a formal notification, party officials cited Binkoni’s alignment with the Independent Candidate as contravening Article 3(9)(1) of the NPP Constitution.

As outlined in Article 3(5)(A)(1), every party member is required to uphold and defend the good name of the NPP while ensuring its objectives and principles are respected.

See full statement;

“I write to formally notify you of your suspension from the New Patriotic Party (NPP) with immediate effect, pursuant to your actions in contravention of the NPP Constitution and the party’s rules and regulations.

“It has come to the attention of the leadership of the party that you have actively participated in and aligned yourself with the campaign of an independent parliamentary candidate within the Wulensi Constituency.

“This action constitutes a clear violation of the NPP Constitution, specifically Article 3(9)(1), which states:
“A member of the Party who supports or campaigns for an independent parliamentary candidate or a candidate of another political party shall be liable to disciplinary action, including suspension or expulsion from the Party.”

“Your actions undermine the principles of loyalty and discipline as enshrined in Article 3(5)(A)(1), which states that every member shall:

“Uphold, promote, and defend the good name of the Party and ensure that the objectives and principles of the Party are respected and upheld at all times.”
