The New Patriotic Party (NPP) in the Tatale-Sanguli constituency of the Northern Region has suspended 58 members for allegedly failing to support the party’s official candidate in the recent elections.
A letter signed by the constituency chairman and addressed to both national and regional executives, seen by Citi News, accuses the members of undermining the party’s candidate, which the chairman claims violates the NPP constitution and justifies the suspensions.
However, one of the suspended members, Napare Prosper, a former communication officer for the constituency, has denied the allegations. He has given the constituency chairman 24 hours to provide evidence and has demanded a fair hearing.
“I have seen the letter on social media saying that I have been suspended for not supporting the MP but I want to state on record that I did not campaign against the duly confirmed candidate.
“I did not in any way campaign against the candidate and I did not breach any of the party’s constitution so they should give us a fair hearing.”
Below is the suspension list.
