The New Patriotic Party (NPP) in the Nanton Constituency is facing growing discontent following the suspension of 34 members.

The decision has sparked protests, with the Coalition of NPP Youth Groups locking up the party office in defiance.

Calling for an immediate reversal, the coalition has petitioned the Regional and National leadership, arguing that the suspensions are unfair and could destabilize the party’s support base.

They warn that such actions threaten party unity and could impact electoral fortunes.

However, the constituency leadership insists that disciplinary measures were necessary, accusing the suspended members of misconduct during the 2024 general elections. They allege that those affected supported the National Democratic Congress (NDC) parliamentary candidate, distributed items to voters on behalf of the NDC, and even obstructed voters with roadblocks on election day. The suspended individuals include polling station executives, electoral area coordinators, and constituency officers.

Ibrahim Abdul Fatawu, convener of the Coalition of NPP Youth Groups, has strongly condemned the suspensions, stating that instead of alienating party members, leadership should focus on reconciliation and strategizing for the 2028 elections. He also criticized the lack of due process, arguing that the suspended members were not given a fair hearing.

The youth coalition warns that if their grievances are ignored, it could discourage loyal supporters from dedicating their efforts and resources to the party. They are urging the NPP leadership to adopt a more inclusive approach to strengthen party cohesion and secure a stronger political future in Nanton.
