I Resigned as Majority Leader to Save the NPP Party – Osei Kyei-Mensah-Bonsu

Former Majority Leader of Parliament, Osei Kyei-Mensah-Bonsu, has stated that his decision to resign from the leadership position in Parliament was motivated by his desire to protect and preserve the unity of the New Patriotic Party (NPP).
Speaking in a recent interview, the long-serving legislator said he has no regrets about stepping down, explaining that the move was necessary to ease growing tensions within the party.
“I resigned as Majority Leader to save the party, and I do not regret my decision,” he said, emphasizing that his priority has always been the collective interest of the NPP rather than personal ambition.
Kyei-Mensah-Bonsu, who represents the Suame Constituency, noted that leadership sometimes demands difficult sacrifices, particularly when party cohesion and public confidence are at stake. He said his resignation was meant to pave the way for renewed unity, dialogue, and cooperation among parliamentary members and within the party’s hierarchy.
He further expressed gratitude to his colleagues for the years of collaboration and service, reaffirming his commitment to continue supporting the NPP both in Parliament and beyond.
The former Majority Leader had served in the leadership of Parliament for several years, playing a key role in legislative affairs and policy debates. His resignation earlier this year drew widespread attention, with many describing it as an act of maturity and loyalty to the party’s long-term stability.
