The National Executive Committee (NEC) of the Convention People’s Party (CPP) has dissolved the entire national leadership and appointed certain members to constitute an interim council responsible for overseeing the party's affairs.

Prominent figures who were dismissed from the party include the General Secretary, Nana Yaa Jantuah, and the National Chairperson, Nana Akosua Frimpomaa Sarpong-Kumankumah.

While Nana Yaa distanced herself from the CPP, Sarpong-Kumankumah maintains her position as the chairperson of the party despite the leadership changes.

This decision, communicated through an official statement released on December 5, 2023, and signed by Interim Secretary Kwame Nkrumah Botsio, was made during a NEC meeting held in Kumasi.

“The Convention Peoples Party (CPP), on Tuesday 5th December 2023, held its National Executive Council (NEC) meeting in Kumasi. At the said meeting, all National Executive Officers were removed from power. At the selfsame meeting, the delegates of NEC, clothed with the requisite power under the Party Constitution, appointed an Interim Council (IC) to steer the affairs of the Party,” the statement said.

The Interim Council comprises the following: Alhaji Ali Adamu, Gallo Emmanuel, Godwin Opare Addo, Semefa Mawutor, Eben Agbenya, Alhaji Issah Sibiru Islam, Abdul Salam Issah, Mariam Munkaila Futa, Ebenezer Tetteh, Dr. Akwesi Bosompem Boateng, Elijah Adams, Kose Dedey and Kwame Nkrumah Botsio.
