I Will Quit NPP and Resign as MP: Dr. Opoko Threatens Exit Over Bawumia

Dr. Yaw Isaac Opoku, the Member of Parliament for Offinso South, has vowed to step down from his parliamentary position if Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia becomes the New Patriotic Party’s presidential candidate.

During a live radio interview, Dr. Opoku voiced his dissatisfaction with the possibility of Bawumia leading the party, expressing concern that such a development could undermine the NPP’s founding ideals and fail to meet the expectations of ordinary Ghanaians.

The declaration has generated mixed reactions among party members and the public. While some view his position as a demonstration of political principle, others believe it could fuel divisions and create uncertainty within the party.

His remarks come at a time when competition for the NPP’s presidential ticket is gaining momentum. Whether Dr. Opoku will honour his pledge if Bawumia is selected remains uncertain, but his statement has intensified debate over the party’s leadership and political future.
