NPP Presidential Hopeful Kennedy Ohene Agyapong has been hurled to the Disciplinary Committee of the party following comments made in a viral video during the party’s Super Delegates Conference held on August 26, 2023, in what has been described as misconduct.
A release signed by NPP General Secretary, Justin Fimpong Koduah said, ”this is a direct response to evidence, including video and photographic materials, which suggest potential violations of the provisions outlined in Article 3(5)(A)(1)(2)(3) and (4) of the Party’s Constitution and a potential misconduct under Article 4(7)”.
”Emphasis must also be placed on the fact that Hon. Kennedy Ohene Agyapong, pursuant to the afore-stated constitutional provisions of the party, will also be summoned before the Disciplinary Committee of the Party to provide responses and further details to the accusations and threats he made against certain personalities in a video that has since gone viral on social media and mainstream media.”
The NPP says it ”remains committed to upholding democratic values, accountability, and the highest standards of conduct. We are confident that this disciplinary process will be conducted with fairness, transparency, and impartiality”.
Kennedy Ohene Agyapong made it into the top 3 of the candidates vying for the top position of the flagbearership of the New Patriotic Party after a special Electoral College voting that was meant to trim the 10 Presidential Hopefuls to five for a November ”Showdown”, where a Candidate will be picked to represent the party in the 2024 General Election.
