The General Secretary of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), Justin Frimpong Kodua, has firmly refuted reports circulating online that claim to contain excerpts from a supposed leaked copy of the party’s internal review committee report, chaired by former Speaker of Parliament, Prof. Mike Oquaye.
In a strongly worded Facebook post, Kodua stated, “I wish to state emphatically that the NPP has not disclosed nor released any portion of the Prof. Oquaye’s Committee Report to anybody, not even to any officially recognized organ of the Party.”
He clarified that only one copy of the committee’s report exists, and it was officially submitted to the National Council through the National Chairman and General Secretary.
“The Party is still studying the contents of the Committee’s Report. If after studying the entire content of the Report, the Party deems it necessary to disclose aspects of the Report that are worthy of disclosure, the same will be done having regard to the best interest of the Party,” he added.
According to the General Secretary, any supposed quotes or extracts from the report currently in circulation are part of a calculated disinformation campaign, likely orchestrated by political opponents seeking to sow division within the party.
“Until that is done and duly communicated, any statement in circulation including so-called direct quotes purporting to be taken from the Report including assigned page numbers can only be the handiwork of political opponents of the NPP intended to achieve mischievous ends at the expense of the Party. All such quotes are, therefore, totally FAKE and should be completely DISREGARDED,” Kodua stressed.
He went on to suggest that the source of the alleged misinformation is linked to the NPP’s main political rivals. “It is thus not surprising that the originators and circulators of these mischievous statements/quotes are members or activists of the NDC,” he noted.
Despite what he termed as an underhanded strategy, Kodua remains resolute that the NPP will stay focused on rebuilding and preparing for the 2028 general elections.
“However, their strategy will not detract us from focusing on rebuilding our Party to recapture power in 2028 and beyond,” he concluded.
