Okaikwei Central MP Patrick Yaw Boamah has expressed deep concern over what he sees as a significant decline in the strength of leadership within the New Patriotic Party (NPP).
He lamented the absence of a resolute and authoritative national chairman capable of steering the party through internal challenges and uniting its rank and file.
Speaking on Channel One TV on Monday, June 23, Mr Boamah highlighted how, in the past, the NPP had been guided by firm leaders who were not afraid to hold even the highest figures in the party accountable.
“We’ve been used to strong chairmen who could correct even the flagbearer or marshal his National Executive Officers to sit the president or the flagbearer down to put in place some arrangement for the betterment of the party,” he remarked.
His comments come amid increasing internal tension within the party, following its defeat in the 2024 general elections.
The lawmaker pointed to rising public disagreements between party stalwarts and the apparent breakdown in internal cohesion as symptoms of a broader leadership failure.
Mr Boamah criticised the current national executives for failing to provide the unity and direction required at a time when the party is seeking to regain public confidence.
He argued that the lack of strong leadership has contributed to poor coordination and declining discipline across party structures.
