Buaben Asamoa is one of four individuals, along with Hopeson Adorye, Nana Ohene Ntow, and Boniface Abubakar Siddique, whose NPP memberships were revoked due to their endorsement of Alan Kyerematen, leader of the Movement for Change and a former party member.

The NPP, in a statement, announced their dismissals, citing a clause in the party’s constitution as the basis for the decision.

Speaking on Oyerepa TV, Mr Asamoa emphasized the significant responsibility that comes with offering oneself to lead people and highlighted the impact on his family, particularly his child, who is reportedly facing mockery in school.

This ridicule has resulted in the child’s inability to focus on studies, causing concern for the family.

“When you offer yourself to lead people, it is a huge responsibility. In my case, it has affected my wife and children. With the question you are asking me now, my child has become a victim of mockery because his father was dismissed. Now, he is unable to focus and it is affecting his studies,” he said.

Mr Buaben Asamoa clarified that his departure from the NPP should not be viewed as mere annoyance but as a serious decision driven by valid concerns.

Addressing the notion that he left the party due to displeasure over someone else leading, he urged consideration for the underlying issues that prompted his decision.

He expressed the need for a thoughtful examination of the circumstances surrounding his departure and reiterated his commitment to addressing genuine concerns rather than harboring personal dissatisfaction.

“Some are saying I left the party because I am annoyed. That cannot be taken lightly. As they keep saying that he is annoyed because someone else is leading the party, they should know that what they themselves are annoying and displeasing. I am not annoyed at anything going on,” he added.
