First National Vice Chairman of the opposition New Patriotic Party (NPP), Dankwa Smith Butey, has apologised after calling for a complete overhaul of the party’s current leadership.
The NPP National Organiser, Henry Nana Boakye, popularly known as Nana B, disclosed this in an interview on Adom FM’s Dwaso Nsem.
“Chairman has apologised to the National Council for his statement. It was wrong and unfortunate, and I don’t want to go into it because he has apologised unreservedly. He was not forced to apologise, but we sometimes say things and we realise they were wrong,” he stated.
Chairman Butey had stated that the current national executives failed to deliver on their mandate and must be replaced ahead of the 2028 general elections.
He made these comments in an earlier interview on Dwaso Nsem in May 2025, citing the NPP’s defeat in the 2024 general elections as a major setback that warrants change.
When asked if he shared Chairman Butey’s views, Nana B disagreed, stating that political party organisation is a different matter altogether.
He argued that the National Democratic Congress (NDC) suffered significant electoral defeats in the past with President John Mahama as candidate and Johnson Asiedu Nketia as General Secretary.
“We never thought Mahama would even become President again because he suffered a defeat badly, but he was repackaged and brought back. The NDC also rewarded Asiedu Nketia by voting him as Chairman,” he explained.
