In a video posted on April 7 by the NPP Projects Bureau via X, the presenter of For the Records criticized these ex-officials for distancing themselves from national matters and relocating abroad since the party’s fall from power.
He expressed strong disapproval of individuals who, despite previously holding influential roles, have failed to support the party during its time in opposition.
According to him, such individuals should not expect to be considered for roles in any future administration if they are not actively contributing now.
He stressed that academic qualifications alone would not be enough to secure positions in the next government and that loyalty and effort during challenging times are what truly matter.
He emphasized that those currently working hard for the party should be the ones to benefit when it regains control.
Afrifa also voiced confidence that the NPP would reclaim leadership from the National Democratic Congress (NDC), pointing to perceived shortcomings in the current administration under John Mahama.
“Whether you like it or not, we will wrestle power from the NDC. Have you seen what Mahama and the NDC government are doing?” he asked.
Additionally, he cautioned the upcoming NPP flagbearer against appointing close personal acquaintances, particularly romantic partners, to top roles in government, warning that such actions would provoke strong opposition from party loyalists.
