The New Patriotic Party (NPP) has officially referred its outspoken Bono Regional Chairman, Kwame Baffoe, commonly known as Abronye DC, to the party’s National Disciplinary Committee due to alleged misconduct. In a petition submitted by the General Secretary, Justin Kodua Frimpong, the party outlined several actions by Mr. Baffoe that it deemed “unbecoming of a member” and “gravely detrimental to the image, unity, and integrity of the organization.”
Key concerns outlined in the petition include:
Defamation of a senior party member: Abronye DC is accused of making derogatory remarks against Kennedy Agyapong, including a claim that “even the elephant has more wisdom than Hon. Agyapong.”
False allegations against the General Secretary: He is alleged to have claimed that Mr. Kodua concealed a report recommending the expulsion of Mr. Agyapong — accusations the party described as “false, malicious, and injurious.”
Misrepresentation of committee findings: The petition further accuses him of disclosing and distorting the contents of a disciplinary committee report, breaching confidentiality and undermining the authority of the committee.
The party has asked the Disciplinary Committee to conduct a thorough and impartial investigation into Mr. Baffoe’s conduct and to impose appropriate sanctions in accordance with the party’s constitution.
The petition emphasizes that ensuring accountability within the NPP is “non-negotiable,” as it is essential for maintaining the party’s unity, integrity, and credibility. The General Secretary highlighted the leadership’s commitment to fairness, discipline, and the protection of the party’s democratic values.
