Former President John Agyekum Kufuor (L) Kwame Baffoe Abronye (R)
Dr Richard Winfred Anane, a leading member of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), has alleged that the Bono Regional Chairman of the party, Kwame Baffoe Abronye, popularly known as Abronye DC, disrespected former President John Agyekum Kufuor during a recent meeting with party executives.
Speaking in an interview on Kasapa FM, which has since circulated on social media, Dr Anane expressed his disappointment over the incident, describing Abronye’s conduct as unbecoming of a party leader.
According to Dr Anane, the meeting, which took place about a week ago, was attended by senior party officials, including former President Kufuor.
During the discussions, Kufuor reportedly advised against the party’s “top-bottom approach,” arguing that such a strategy was not beneficial to the NPP’s unity and effectiveness.
“Normally, we don’t bring party matters outside, but I will say this, about a week ago, the party had a meeting and President Kufuor attended. He told them about the top-bottom approach, asserting that it is not a good idea.”

He explained that the former President emphasised the need for unity among the various regional chairmen, noting that the party’s national chairman had not been very active for certain reasons.
Kufuor, he said, urged the leadership to foster collaboration among all chairpersons to strengthen the party’s structure.
However, Dr Anane alleged that Abronye DC reacted disrespectfully to the former President’s comments during the meeting.
“Do you know who reacted? The Bono Chairman, Abronye. Where was Abronye when we formed the party?”
“He said Kufuor had mentioned Paul Afoko’s name and that… what does he mean…the acting chairman had to apologize and several people present condemned Abronye’s utterances. Where the man has reached, has Abronye been there before?”
