The General Secretary of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), Justin Kodua Frimpong, has stated that the party intends to engage with Cynthia Morrison following her decision to contest the 2024 general elections as an independent candidate.
This follows the announcement by the former Minister for Gender, Children, and Social Protection, Cynthia Morrison, of her intention to run as an independent candidate in the 2024 general elections.
While addressing her constituents, Morrison declared, “God willing, I will be contesting the parliamentary election as an independent candidate.
It is not about the NDC, and it is not about the NPP. It is about the development of Agona.”
She emphasized her commitment to the development of Agona West, despite her loss in the NPP parliamentary primaries, and called on her constituents to support her independent candidacy.
Speaking on Eyewitness News on Thursday, August 22, 2024, Justin Kodua Frimpong reaffirmed the party’s focus on maintaining unity as they strive to “break the eight” in the upcoming elections.
“As a political party, for this year’s election which has been our mantra, we are going to break the eight. In breaking the eight means we need to do exceptional things and bring everybody on board.
“Our objective is to make sure that all our party faithful are brought on board.
So, taking steps that will make sure that at least we engage those who are going independent is something that we are going to do rather than whether to write them a letter or not to write them a letter. what we want to do is to bring everybody on board…the party leadership will continue to engage her,” he stated.
