The aftermath of the 2024 elections has jolted the NPP into much-needed introspection. The Quaye Committee has submitted its findings on the party’s electoral defeat, prompting leadership to announce a General Congress (delegates conference) scheduled for July to review and possibly amend the party’s constitution. This is a step in the right direction, one that reflects a willingness to confront internal issues and course-correct decisively.
In tandem with this constitutional review, the party’s leadership, spearheaded by General Secretary Justin Kodua, is initiating a nationwide tour, including the flagbearer. It’s a strategic and timely move. Kodua’s leadership in steering this effort deserves commendation. His proactive approach signals the party’s intent to reconnect with its grassroots base, rebuild trust, and express accountability for losing power in a high-stakes political climate.
This outreach is not just about optics, it’s about reconciliation, reorganization, and rebuilding unity. The future strength of the NPP hinges on such deliberate efforts, and this initiative could very well be the turning point.
I applaud Justin Kodua for his sense of urgency, his clarity of purpose, and his commitment to restoring the party’s footing. Ghanaian democracy is better for it.
