The decision to depart from the PNC comes as a result of the fact that we disagree with the ruling of the high court of 8th April 2024 for reinstating individuals whom we believe were rightfully dismissed from leadership positions due to financial malfeasance and misconduct.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe the members of the National Executive Committee, representing 11 out of 16 regions, disagree with the ruling. We cannot in good conscience allow individuals lacking integrity and credibility to govern our party, especially when the legacy of our founder, Dr. Hilla Limann, is one of sacrifice without blemish.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAs we approach the pivotal elections of 2024, we recognize that credibility is paramount. Our party, the People\u2019s National Party, will uphold the values of honesty, integrity, and transparency. We will not compromise on these principles, nor shall we allow the tarnishing of our founder\u2019s legacy by individuals with stained hands,\u201d he stated.<\/p>\n<p>Mr Seidu asked for the continued support of Ghanaians as they embarked on this new journey.<\/p>\n<p>He indicated that they would uphold the legacy of integrity and honesty set forth by Dr. Hilla Limann and work tirelessly to serve the best interests of our nation.<\/p>\n<p>They also unveiled the interim executives, with Janet Nabla appointed as the party\u2019s National Chairman.<\/p>\n<p>The others were Vice Chairman, Francis Oppong; General Secretary, Sulemana Seidu; Deputy Secretary, Abdul Kadri Issah; National Organiser, Francis Daasu; Deputy Organiser, Faustina Anane, Treasurer, Jessica Aputare; Deputy Treasurer, Zakaria Mohammed; National Women\u2019s Organiser, Patience Lamisi Adams; Deputy Women\u2019s Organiser, Sandra Adepa; National Youth Organiser, Muniru S.
