NPP’s 2024 defeat still hurts – Justin Kodua Frimpong

General Secretary of the New Patriotic Party, Justin Kodua Frimpong, says the party is still hurting from its defeat in the December 7, 2024 general elections but insists the loss does not define the NPP.

In a New Year message, Kodua Frimpong admitted that the pain of the defeat is still fresh, describing the past year as a difficult one for the party.

However, he said the NPP remains strong, stressing that its identity is built on lasting values, resilience, and commitment to Ghana, not on a single election result.

He noted that the party has gone through challenging moments in the past and always emerged stronger through unity, adding that the current situation is no different. According to him, the NPP has already started taking steps to address weaknesses exposed by the defeat and to improve its chances in future elections.

Kodua revealed that the party has begun internal reforms, including constitutional amendments, the creation of a training and research centre known as the Patriotic Institute, and the reactivation of its membership payment platform. He said these efforts are aimed at rebuilding a stronger and more competitive party.

Looking ahead, he said the NPP will carry out major activities this year, including the presidential primary, elections of party officers at all levels, and a reconciliation and unity drive. He assured members that all internal elections will be free, fair, and transparent.

Kodua warned against factionalism as the party prepares for a competitive presidential race, urging members to put unity above internal divisions. He said true leadership in the NPP must focus on healing wounds and restoring confidence among supporters.

He also praised the Minority in Parliament, led by Alexander Afenyo-Markin, for standing firm in opposition, and commended party executives and grassroots members for remaining loyal despite the loss of power.

Calling for renewed hope, Kodua encouraged party supporters not to lose faith, saying the NPP will rebuild and rise again through reflection, resilience, and collective effort…CONTINUE MORE READING>>>
