A senior figure of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) in the Ashanti Region, Odeneho Kwaku Appiah, has called for a revision of the party’s internal qualification criteria for leadership roles at the regional and national levels.
He is advocating that aspirants for top executive positions within the party must have previously held roles at the polling station or constituency level, arguing that such experience is crucial for effective leadership and grassroots connection.
The former Ashanti Regional Chairman aspirant made these remarks at the NPP Chairmen Caucus of Ghana Conference held in Kumasi, under the theme: “Building Momentum: The Role of NPP Constituency Chairmen in Uplifting the Party Towards 2028 and Beyond.”
The conference convened constituency chairmen from across the country to deliberate on strategies, party cohesion, and preparations ahead of the 2028 general elections.
Odeneho Appiah stressed the importance of unity, discipline, and renewed energy as the party works to regain power, particularly in light of challenges stemming from the 2024 elections. He cautioned against the risks of internal divisions and disunity.
“Let us set aside religious, tribal, and economic differences in favour of collective strength,” he urged.
Quoting Psalm 133:1 — “Behold, how good and pleasant it is when brothers live together in unity” — he underscored the need for forgiveness, teamwork, and ethical leadership as key ingredients for political success.
Throughout his address, Odeneho Appiah invoked the wisdom of global and African figures, referencing Eleanor Roosevelt, Martin Luther King Jr., and African proverbs to reinforce messages of collaboration, unity, and leadership responsibility.
He also encouraged party executives to take an active role in decision-making processes, promote transparency, and accommodate dissenting views within the framework of respectful democratic engagement.
