Tone down none of you can win us power – Former NPP MP warns aspirants

Former Subin MP, Eugene Boakye Antwi, has cautioned that the New Patriotic Party (NPP) risks losing the 2028 general elections if it continues to rely on individual factions rather than building unity within the party.

During an interview on Adom FM’s Dwaso Nsem, the former Deputy Minister for Works and Housing emphasized the importance of collaboration among all members and stakeholders of the party. He warned that internal divisions could damage their chances of returning to power.

“Former President Kufuor said it all—when you are given power temporarily, it doesn’t mean you own the party. I believe in a tradition, not a faction, because a camp or faction cannot win power,” he stated.

He went on to say that no single group or camp within the party can win elections on its own.

“None of the presidential aspirants’ camps, including Bawumia, Ken, Joe Ghartey, Adutwum, Bryan Acheampong—none of them can single-handedly secure power for us unless we unite.”

Reflecting on the party’s defeat in the 2024 elections, Mr. Antwi described it as a necessary wake-up call. He stressed the need for the party to focus on rebuilding and reconnecting with the Ghanaian people.

“We must fix ourselves first. We need to reconnect with the people and rebuild the trust of Ghanaians,” he said.

He also called on the NPP to return to its core values and founding ideals.

“We must realign our party with the values of the founding fathers. We must revisit the traditions and ideologies on which the party was built,” he urged.
