An investigation by The Chronicle has uncovered deepening cracks within the New Patriotic Party (NPP) national leadership, pointing to a growing power tussle that threatens to shake the party’s stability, ahead of its crucial internal and national decisions.
At the centre of the controversy is the alleged side-lining of the party’s First National Vice-Chairman, Dankwa Smith Butey, who, by constitutional hierarchy, should be acting as National Chairman, due to the ill health and effective absence of the substantive National Chairman, Stephen Ayensu Ntim.
