Former Member of Parliament for Dome Kwabenya, Sarah Adwoa Safo, has taken a bold stance against the General Secretary of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), asserting that no one has the power to silence her or push her out of the party.
“Nobody brought me to the party, and the party is not for anyone. We are all in there to build the party, so nobody can force me out, and nobody can force me to keep my mouth shut,” she stated firmly.
Her comments come in response to recent criticisms and statements from within the party, particularly from the General Secretary, whom she accused of bowing to external influences.
“He should go on social media and see how the party members are criticising him. He has an election coming up, and he shouldn’t allow himself to be manipulated or used for other people’s agendas. If your base is bitter and feels unheard, they would want someone to speak for them,” she added.
Adwoa Safo also addressed what she described as a deliberate attempt to tarnish her reputation within the party.
“There has been a character assassination on me. I have been defamed by my own party,” she lamented. “I owe it to myself to clarify things and set the record straight.
“Whatever they have painted me as to bring me down, is not the truth. I will make sure the truth is known.”
Reiterating her belief in free speech, the former minister insisted that every individual has the right to express themselves without fear of being silenced.
“No one should be silenced for voicing their opinion, especially when it’s a constitutional right,” she emphasized.
