Justin Frimpong Kodua, General Secretary of the opposition New Patriotic Party
Justin Frimpong Kodua, General Secretary of the opposition New Patriotic Party (NPP), has declared that the party will strictly enforce sanctions against members who refuse to be disciplined and abide by the rules and regulations of the “elephant family” (a common nickname for the NPP).
He stated that those who intend to aspire to lead the party should understand that others have previously occupied the positions they seek.
Speaking at the party’s national delegates conference held on Saturday, July 19, 2025, he told those aspiring to be elected as presidential candidate or to any other positions not to allow their interests to override the party’s interests.
He maintained that anyone seeking to lead the party must respect the party and its structures.
Frimpong Kodua called on Congress to deny individuals currently campaigning in their respective regions the chance, as the party had yet to officially open nominations for any of the positions they want to contest.
