Obiri Boahen Quits NPP, Decides To Contest 2024 As Independent Candidate"},"content":{"rendered":"Nana Obiri Boahen, a prominent figure within the New Patriotic Party (NPP), has made the surprising decision to leave the party and run as an independent in the 2024 elections, according to information obtained.<\/p>\n
The former deputy general secretary of the ruling New Patriotic Party (NPP), Nana Obiri Boahen’s decision, has sent shockwaves through the political landscape, as he has been a steadfast member of the NPP for many years.<\/p>\n
He is a seasoned politician, is widely recognized for his contributions to the NPP and his roles in various government positions.<\/p>\n
The source claims that his decision came about as a result of his elimination from the manifesto committee and campaign team of NPP flagbearer Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia.<\/p>\n
Dr. Bawumia was endorsed by the Private Legal Practitioner, who started supporting him well in advance of his election on November 4, 2023, as the NPP flagbearer.<\/p>\n
It was therefore the expectation of many that he would at least be made a spokesperson on the campaign team for the 2024 election.<\/p>\n
However, hopes were dashed when Obiri Boahen did not make the list submitted to the National Executive Council (NEC) on February 19.<\/p>\n
Reacting to the development in an exclusive interview with Kumasi-based Time FM\u2019s Nana Owusu Achiaw, he stated he wouldn\u2019t know his relevance in the party if he wasn\u2019t included in the campaign and manifesto teams.<\/p>\n
\u201cI should have been named the campaign manager since I started my campaign in 2021,\u201d he declared.<\/p>\n
Lawyer Nana Obiri Boahen expressed regret about his hard-fought presidential campaign for Akufo-Addo and his painful side lining following his election.<\/p>\n
Resentful Lawyer Nana Obiri Boahen warned the NPP to get ready for him in the polls scheduled for December.
