The New Patriotic Party (NPP) in the Upper East Region has suspended six constituency executives in the Pusiga constituency, citing alleged anti-party behavior.
The directive came through a letter dated February 20, 2025, penned by the Regional Chairman, Anthony Namoo, Esq. The affected officials have been instructed to step aside and face the regional disciplinary committee to answer for their purported actions, though the precise nature of their offenses remains undisclosed.
Among those sidelined are Awinimi Emmanuel, the Constituency Communication Officer, alongside Belingumse Sawuda, who served as 2nd Vice Chairman, Haruna Salam, the Assistant Secretary, Kazussah Jacob, the Treasurer, Salifu Ibn Adam, the Elections and Research Officer, and Iddrisu Kadiri, the Deputy Nasara Coordinator.
In a report by Citinewsroom.com, Awinimi Emmanuel expressed a mix of acceptance and confusion after receiving his suspension notice.
“When I opened the letter, they said they had suspended me as Communication Officer of the party in the constituency and the Regional Disciplinary Committee will invite me,” he remarked.
“I said okay. So I took my letter. That is all I can say,” he added.
The suspension comes on the back of the defeat suffered by the NPP in the 2024 presidential and parliamentary election.
