Former New Patriotic Party (NPP) flagbearer hopeful, Boakye Agyarko

Former New Patriotic Party (NPP) flagbearer hopeful, Boakye Agyarko, delivered a compelling speech during an engagement with members of the Minority Caucus of the 9th Parliament.

Boakye Agyarko, who served as Minister for Energy during the first term of former President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo, noted that although the NPP MPs currently number only 88 compared to the Majority Caucus’s 187, they can still wield significant influence in parliamentary decision-making.

He cited the example of the NPP Minority Caucus of 1997, led by the late Joseph Henry (J.H.) Mensah, who, despite leading a minority, was instrumental in shaping the direction of the House.

“We were outnumbered and seemed outgunned, but our dedicated and hardworking crop of MPs would not roll over and play dead to the NDC. Collectively, under the leadership of Hon. Joseph Henry Abbiw Mensah, they put up a gallant, intelligent, and strategic fight, so much so that it earned the admiration of the Majority side,” he recalled.

“Walk any day into that small office he had in Parliament House and you would find it filled with more NDC MPs than NPP MPs. They had come, as it were, on a pilgrimage to tap into the collective wisdom of the minority side. In so doing, the mind of the minority prevailed and directed the minds and actions of the majority side. How subtle. We did it then to great effect, we can and must do it again.”

Agyarko emphasised that the J.H. Mensah-led Minority was effective because they were factual, strategic, and proactive, qualities he urged the current Minority Caucus, led by Alexander Kwamina Afenyo-Markin, to emulate.

“We must be diligent in our research and always present superior material and arguments in the House. We must be proactive on all issues to prevent our opponents from putting us on the back foot.

“We must be factual, educative, and accurate on matters we wish to bring to the people of Ghana. We must be very strategic in the battles we pick to fight, so as not to be seen as merely opposing,” he noted.

He concluded by stressing the importance of the MPs’ role in the party’s performance in the upcoming 2028 general election.

“On the broader front, our fighting force for the reclamation of electoral and political territory is now largely dependent on you, our parliamentary party. There is a herculean task ahead of you.

“These tasks are to be performed in an environment marked by all manner of shortages, money, material resources, quality human capital, time, and patience, all while your constituents are constantly snapping at your heels,” he concluded.

Logo of the Ghana National Council of Private Schools

The Ghana National Council of Private Schools (GNACOPS) has said that the 30% quota system on admission slots that is reserved exclusively for students who completed BECE in public schools has given public basic schools an undue advantage over private schools, overlooking the efforts of the non-state actors in the sector to provide quality education.

They added that beyond this, the 70% left is still shared among candidates from both the public and private schools, which GNACOPS said accounts for 49% of education establishments and 33% of all enrollments at the pre-tertiary level in Ghana.

Yet many of them are struggling to survive in the sector as government’s 30% quota to public schools continues to affect them, it added.

According to a 3news.com, private basic schools in Ghana contribute significantly to education by supplementing the public system, offering diverse learning environments to meet crucial educational needs, especially in most areas where access to public schools is limited.

However, for years now, most of the schools have collapsed as their enrollment continues to decrease, it added.

Recent data by the Ghana Statistical Service indicates that while some progress has been made in increasing enrolment and improving gender parity, significant gaps remain.

Ransford Gyekye, Proprietor for Supreme Care Edu Complex, one of the schools struggling to operate, said he wants the 30% quota relooked at as a matter of urgency.

‘‘This placement thing that the government gives 30%, what we call quota for the government schools, because of that, parents think that, well, then when the time comes, I should move my ward so that they also go and enjoy back in there. And it’s also having an impact on us. When you train them from stage two to six, then you see them moving towards there. So, our numbers keep dwindling. Initially, we had about 600 students, but they are reduced to about four hundred or something,” he indicated.

The Executive Director of GNACOPS, Enoch Kwesi Gyetuah, said that they petitioned CHRAJ in 2024 on the issue described as illegal, but they are not happy with the delays in addressing the issue by the state agency.

‘‘It was not constitutionally constituted. We concluded that it bordered on human rights, and so we petitioned CHRAJ last year and have also engaged the sector minister who agrees that it must be scrapped. But one thing that is of concern to us is that, if we have petitioned CHRAJ, it has to work but we have not seen any positive move from them that they have taken the matter up, so we have written to them indicating that we don’t want to believe that they have compromised their mandate to take sides with the government. Else, we will take them on as well as the Ministry of Education and the GES. We are not going to budge from any form of intimidation or manipulation”, he indicated, the report added.

Gyetuah noted that it’s not only the schools that are affected, stating that the students are inclusive.

In alignment with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goal 4, which seeks to ensure inclusive and equitable access to quality education and promote lifelong learning opportunities for all, there is a growing demand for accessible quality education.

Accra, April 14, GNA – The Constitution Review Committee (CRC), tasked with assessing and proposing amendments to Ghana’s 1992 Constitution, has received over 500 on-line and in-person submissions to assist its work.

The committee, made up of legal and governance experts, will focus on identifying key areas of the Constitution that need updating to align with the country’s evolving democratic and socio-economic realities.

In addition, it is to carefully examine past recommendations, identify necessary changes, and create a clear roadmap leading to meaningful constitutional amendments.

Dr Rainer Akumperigya, the Secretary to the CRC, who disclosed this to the Ghana News Agency, said the stakeholder engagements had, so far, been fruitful.

The committee had received written submissions from groups, including the National Commission for Civic Education, past officers from the Electoral Commission, and Non-Governmental/Civil Society Organisations (CSOs) with a lot of expertise in the natural resources sector, like the Africa Centre for Energy Policy, he said.

From academia, Professors Kwame Gyan, Kofi Quashiga and Kwadwo Appiagyei-Atua, all from the University of Ghana, have presented proposals to the Committee.

The Institute of Economic Affairs, which was represented by two notable personalities; former Speaker of Parliament, Prof Mike Aaron Oquaye, and former Chief Justice, Justice Sophia Akuffo, also presented written submissions to the group. A lot of engineers and institutions have presented proposals.

Dr Akumperigya said the Committee had already met with President John Dramani Mahama at the Jubilee House to solicit his inputs, considering his wealth of experience, from his days as assemblyman, to Member of Parliament, Vice President, and President of Ghana.

“The Committee will also meet with the other arms of government; the Legislature and Judiciary, to present their proposals, as well as former Presidents and Vice President to make their submissions to support our work,” he said.

The Secretary to the Committee explained that after its inauguration in February, the Committee had proceeded to set out the modalities of undertaking its mandate in terms of strategy, engagement, timelines, planning and resources.

During the first week of discussions the committee decided on two major forms of engagements; the stakeholder and the validation engagements.

He clarified that even before the Committee was formed the President had earlier announced the holding of a National Constitutional Validation Conference.

In order not to duplicate the functions of the committee, and the outcome of the validation conference, which will be materially useful to the committee, it had decided to merge the national validation conference with its zonal engagements, which the President accepted.

Eight zones were, therefore, created out of the 16 regions, with Tamale and Bolga in one zone, Wa, Sunyani, Kumasi, Takoradi, Cape Coast and Koforidua as different zones, whiles Accra will serve as the hub for stakeholder engagements.

The zonal engagements were open to the public; traditional authorities, heads of educational institutions, students’ unions, women’s groups, and disability groups among others.

Mr Akumperigya said the Committee delineated the Constitution into 10 identifiable thematic subject matter areas, which included the Lands and Natural Resource Governance, Decentralisation, Local Government and Chieftancy, and Public Services and Enterprises.

Other areas to be considered are the independent constitutional bodies or offices such as the Electoral Commission, National Media Commission, Commission on Human Rights and Administrative Justice, the National Commission for Civic Education, the Auditor General, and Audit Service.

A discussion would also be held on three arms of government, the Executive, Legislature and the Judiciary. The last will be the Finance, the Central Bank, the use of discretionary power, and dual citizenship amendment.

Dr Akumperigya explained that the Constitution provided for the mode of amending the entrenched clauses and the non-entrenched ones.

He said: “For the non-entrenched clauses the provisions can be amended by Parliament based on the numbers and with the NDC’s majority in Parliament that can easily be done.”

For the entrenched ones, part of the mandate of the committee was to provide some timelines, plan, and a roadmap as to how government could implement the recommendations.

He noted that the report would go beyond some of the existing ones such as the Prof Albert K. Fiadjoe Constitution Review Committee Report and take into account current major developments.

Oyibi (GA/R), April 14, GNA – Hajia Safia Mohammed, Deputy National Women’s Organizer of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) has called on members of the Tertiary Students Confederacy (TESCON) of the NPP at Valley View University to uphold the core values and principles of the party.

Hajia Safia Mohammed, who made the call whilst addressing TESCON Members at a general meeting, fresher’s orientation, and handing-over ceremony at Valley View University at Oyibi in the Greater Accra Region, said TESCON was not just an extension of the party but its very own soul.

She emphasised that TESCON, which is the students’ wing of the NPP, served as the breeding ground for bold ideas, patriotic spirit, and future leadership for the NPP.

She commended the Valley View University Chapter for consistently demonstrating commitment to the progress and transformation of the country through its vibrant and visionary student leadership.

She praised the outgoing executives for their dedication, sacrifice and honourable service to the party, saying “You have served with distinction and upheld the values of the elephant family. To the incoming executives, your mandate is sacred. You are not just student leaders; you are the vanguard of a national cause.”

She encouraged the new leadership to serve with integrity, courage, and unwavering convictions, noting that their actions today would shape the future of the country.

Hajia Safia Mohammed touched on the party’s current situation and said “We are at a turning point in the history of our great party. Having exited government, this is not a time for retreat but for renewal. We must rebuild the base, reclaim our message, and reenergize the grassroots.”

She criticized the ruling National Democratic Congress (NDC), accusing it of using state security agencies to intimidate and harass NPP members, adding “Their only strategy now is fear and intimidation, but we will not be cowed. We will not relent in speaking truth to power and demanding what is right for Ghanaians.”

Hajia Safia Mohammed urged the students to stay strong, vigilant, and committed to holding the government accountable.

She said, “Your energy, voices, social media influence, and community engagement are the tools with which we will fight and win.”

Ernest Owusu-Bempah (L) and Kwaku Atta Sarpong

NPP Ashanti Regional Deputy Organiser, Kwaku Atta Sarpong, has slammed Ernest Owusu-Bempah, a Deputy Communications Officer of the party, over his recent pronouncement on the person to lead the party into the 2028 presidential election.

In a statement sighted by GhanaWeb, Atta Sarpong said the New Patriotic Party (NPP) deputy communications officer should keep quiet if he has nothing meaningful to say about the party’s leadership ahead of the 2028 general elections.

He accused Owusu-Bempah of being divisive and reckless, and blamed him for the party’s loss of the Asante Akyem North parliamentary seat.

“It has become necessary to respond to the recent comments by Ernest Owusu-Bempah concerning who should lead the New Patriotic Party (NPP). If Mr Bempah has nothing sensible or constructive to say on this matter, he must simply shut up.

“He should rather focus on his own constituency, Asante Akyem North (AAN), which he effectively dashed to an independent candidate, largely due to his divisive and reckless comments on radio in Agogo. His actions have weakened the party’s strength in the area, and he has no moral authority to interfere in national party leadership discussions,” he said.

The Ashanti Regional Deputy Organiser went on to state that the NPP would not allow individuals who do not have the party’s interest at heart to derail its efforts to win back power in 2028.

“The NPP is currently working hard to rebuild, unify, and prepare for victory in the 2028 elections. We will not allow distractions from individuals who have, in the past, chosen self-interest over party interest.

“Let it be known that the NPP’s future will be determined by loyal, dedicated, and competent patriots, not loud voices without substance,” his statement concluded.

Ernest Owusu-Bempah had advised the leadership of the party not to retain former Vice President and 2024 Flagbearer, Dr Mahamudu Bawumia, as its presidential candidate for the 2028 general election.

In an interview on Oyerepa FM and monitored by GhanaWeb on Monday, April 14, 2025, he attributed the party’s defeat in the 2024 elections to its flagbearer, claiming that the grassroots were not happy about Dr Bawumia’s candidacy.

“For the first time, I met a taxi driver who is a member of the NPP and told me he voted for the NDC in the 2024 Election. He even showed me his party card. His reason was simple — we didn’t choose the right candidate. Over 2.1 million NPP supporters abstained from voting because they did not approve of our presidential candidate,” he said.

He also previously stated that the party’s hopes ahead of the 2028 Election lie in the hands of former Member of Parliament for Assin Central, Kennedy Agyapong, and the current Member of Parliament for the Abetifi Constituency, Bryan Acheampong.

In a social media post on April 7, 2025, Owusu-Bempah claimed that his assertion is both divine and prophetic.

He expressed conviction that the choice of these two political figures reflects the will of what he referred to as “the people.”

In his post, Owusu-Bempah shared an image of Bryan Acheampong and Kennedy Agyapong with the caption, “The future of the NPP depends on these two guys… Prophetic! Ala AFA—the voice of the people.”

In another post, he added, “Hope IS COMING!!!… Eshie Rado Rado… Change is coming!!!”

Apostle Kwadwo Safo (L) and his daughter, Sarah Adwoa Safo

Ghanaian industrialist, inventor, and pastor, Apostle Kwadwo Safo, has opened up about his spiritual prowess and abilities.

Speaking in a viral video from a recent event, the founder of the Kristo Asafo Church and Kantanka Automobile touted his ability to teleport to different countries.

“The God we serve is very faithful to us… A person who is called by someone abroad and he says I will be there. They ask, ‘You have no plane ticket, you don’t have a passport, how are you going to travel?’ Before they realised it, I’m there,” he said in the Twi dialect.

Apostle Safo went on to narrate how he teleported abroad to teach his daughter, Sarah Adwoa Safo, a former Member of Parliament for the Dome-Kwabenya Constituency, who was also a former Minister of Gender, Children and Social Protection under the Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo government.

“We came back from Kumasi one Wednesday. I told them that I was going to sleep and no one should wake me up because I was going to teach Adwoa over there (the US). They ask, ‘How are you going to teach her?’

“When I was going, I took a blackboard, a chalk and a duster to where she was staying abroad, (I taught her) procurement. She had not studied this before. What she knows is ‘I put it to you’ (law),” he said.

Speaking at the same event, Sarah Adwoa Safo touted how her father’s spiritual prowess has saved her from the hands of her enemies who attacked her spiritually.

“During my first parliamentary election contest in the Dome-Kwabenya Constituency, some individuals took my picture and collected sand from my footprints to use in a sacred ritual. However, whenever they attempted to call out my spirit to cause harm, my father would appear to protect me.

“It got to a point when the ritualist saw my picture, they said it was a man. When they mentioned my name, he said they should never mention that name again. As for my father, I don’t know how to thank him,” she also said in the Twi dialect.

The former minister went on to corroborate her father’s claim that he teleported abroad to teach her procurement.

“This man that we have gotten, when you mention his name at places, you think he can’t be present, he will be there. He is a man who sleeps here (Ghana) and appears in America saying ‘I’m coming to teach you procurement,’” she confirmed.

Former Chairperson of the Electoral Commission (EC), Charlotte Osei, has called for amendments to Ghana’s asset declaration regime.

Her remarks come in the wake of a new report by the Ghana Center for Democratic Development (CDD-Ghana), which revealed alarming figures about the cost of winning elections in Ghana.

This development has raised serious concerns about the future of democratic governance and the country’s fight against corruption.

According to the report, securing victory in presidential and parliamentary elections now requires an estimated $150 million and an additional GHS 10 million.

The report attributes this steep price tag to the growing monetization of the electoral process — a trend it warns is entrenching corruption and weakening accountability in public office.

Speaking at the event, Charlotte Osei, who is also a member of the Constitutional Review Committee, emphasised the need for a critical review of the asset declaration regime.

She noted that reforms are necessary to strengthen transparency and public trust.

Tema, April 14, GNA – The National Democratic Congress (NDC), Executive Committee of Tema Central, has called for peace, unity, and non-divisiveness in the appointment of a metropolitan chief executive for Tema.

This was contained in a statement signed by Mr. Benjamin Djakumah, the NDC Tema Central Constituency Chair, and copied to the Ghana News Agency (GNA).

It noted that at this critical time in Ghana’s democratic journey, they were calling on all political party members, supporters, and the good people of Tema to remain calm and united and respect the due process.

“We strongly urge all stakeholders to refrain from actions, statements, or demonstrations that may incite division or disrupt the peace and harmony of our beloved city.”

It added that the selection and appointment of an MCE was a constitutional mandate bestowed upon the president, guided by consultations and in the best interest of the people.

The executive stated that they trust in the wisdom and leadership of the president to appoint a competent, visionary, and inclusive leader who would serve the people of Tema with integrity, fairness, and commitment to development.

“We therefore appeal to all political actors and community members to come together in the spirit of unity, patriotism, and mutual respect. Let us prioritise the collective progress of Tema over individual interests and work hand in hand to build a peaceful and prosperous municipality for all.”

According to them, the people of Tema Central would support any nominee of the president in the interest of peace, unity, and progress.

Meanwhile, the youth of Tema, over the weekend, demonstrated at the forecourt of the Tema Metropolitan Assembly (TMA), reiterating their call for an indigene to be appointed to the position.

They burnt tyres and placed a red banner with the inscription, “The mayor of TMA should remain an indigene. “No compromise” on the main entrance of the assembly.

According to the youth, they have picked up information that Ms Ebi Bright, the Tema Central NDC 2024 parliamentary candidate, was being pushed to be nominated as the MCE, an action they would resist.

Mohammed Amadou Zakou, a social activist affiliated with the New Patriotic Party (NPP), has been detained by the National Intelligence Bureau (NIB) for allegedly spreading false information about Vice President Professor Naana Jane Opoku-Agyemang on social media.

On April 4, 2025, at approximately 4:00 am, Zakou made a Facebook post featuring a photo of Prof Opoku-Agyemang, accompanied by the caption, ‘Rest well, Your Excellency,’ along with crying emojis, suggesting sorrow and implying what many have termed her demise.

His post came six days after an official government statement announced that the vice president had received medical treatment at the University of Ghana Medical Centre (UGMC) following a sudden illness on Friday, March 28, 2025.

The communiqué further indicated that, based on medical advice, the vice president would seek additional treatment abroad to ensure a full recovery.

His post drew widespread backlash from other Facebook users, who condemned him for making such a reckless statement about the vice president.

Many criticised him for spreading false information and deliberately misleading the public.

Despite the backlash, Zakou has not retracted his post, which remains visible on his Facebook page.

In connection with the incident, Zakou was reportedly picked up by the National Intelligence Bureau (NIB) over the weekend for interrogation and remains in their custody.

However, his arrest has been met with condemnation, particularly from members of the opposition New Patriotic Party (NPP), some of whom have downplayed Zakou’s actions, arguing that they do not warrant an arrest.

What some NPP members have said:

John Boadu

One of the prominent figures within the party who has condemned the arrest and called for Zakou’s immediate release is the former General Secretary of the NPP, John Boadu.

According to him, Zakou’s actions did not warrant an arrest, describing the post as ‘a usual banter by the youth on Facebook, which they have taken as seriously as a World Cup.’

Alongside other NPP executives from the Greater Accra Region, he has called for Zakou’s immediate release, accusing the government of using state institutions as tools to suppress citizens’ freedom of speech and erode the country’s democratic principles — an act he asserted the NPP will vehemently resist.

“They claim he said something on Facebook; a platform these young guys use to play around is what these people have taken as World Cup. Whether they like it or not, after 48 hours, they will have to release him and we will be there,” he said.

Boadu added that the NPP will not remain aloof and allow state institutions to be used as tools to intimidate its members or prevent them from expressing themselves freely.

“Is this what we fought for the country? We are not going to sit back and allow security agencies ordered by the president to be intimidating our people. People have said worse things and they are walking freely,” John Boadu said in an interview with UTV.

Kwame Baffoe

The Bono Regional Chairman of the NPP, Kwame Baffoe, popularly known as Abronye DC, has also criticised the National Intelligence Bureau (NIB), arguing that the phrase ‘rest well’ does not necessarily imply or confirm someone’s demise.

Reacting to Zakou’s arrest in a Facebook post on April 12, 2025, Abronye wrote, ‘Eiiiii @NIB, so you’re telling us that the expression ‘Rest Well’ means death or someone is dead? Eiiiii mo te brofo ampa,’ — a comment which loosely translates to, ‘You really understand English to an extreme extent,’ in a sarcastic tone.”

His statement was aimed at questioning the NIB’s interpretation of Zakou’s post and further criticising what he viewed as an overreach.

PK Sarpong

Also a member of the NPP, PK Sarpong condemned the NIB’s actions, accusing the bureau of being ‘deficient in the Queen’s Language.’

In a Facebook post, he explained that Zakou allegedly told him the phrase ‘rest well’ was intended to wish the vice president a speedy recovery, thereby defending the activist’s actions and questioning the basis for his arrest.

“It is more than embarrassing how the REST WELL post made by an NPP activist could lead to his arrest. It only goes to show that those who effected the arrest and their enablers are very deficient in the Queen’s Language.

“REST WELL doesn’t have a single interpretation. It is ambiguous. To take one meaning without the other depicts the poverty of their knowledge in English. Of course, REST WELL can be used for a dearly departed person, but it can also be used to wish someone who maybe suffering from an ailment or sickness well,” he posted on Facebook on Monday, April 14, 2025.

He added; “The gentleman says his post was to wish Vice President Naana Jane Opoku-Agyemang well and a quick recovery. This, therefore, doesn’t call for his arrest. He only wished the Veep well as she is resting in the UK. They should let him go home.”

Krachi Nchumuru (O/R), April 14, GNA – The new District Chief Executive (DCE) for Krachi Nchumuru in the Oti Region, Mr. Martin Kofi Anato, has pledged to create a peaceful atmosphere in the district as a foundation for development.

In an interview with the Ghana News Agency (GNA), Mr. Anato emphasised the importance of peace and collective effort in achieving meaningful development.

“Development is about ensuring that people receive what they need and value. It doesn’t happen in isolation — it involves the people, helping them to understand that they have a stake in the process,” he stated.

According to Mr. Anato, sacrifice played a crucial role in the developmental journey.

“Development is not just about physical structures. It requires sacrifice. Are the people ready to make sacrifices? We need to educate them on when to contribute and how to take responsibility. Without peace, we cannot develop.

“A peaceful environment allows people to work freely without fear or hindrance. These are the priorities I intend to pursue for the development of the Krachi Nchumuru District,” he said.

The DCE also identified some key challenges facing the district, including poor road networks, water and sanitation issues, and inadequate school infrastructure.

He assured that addressing these issues would be at the forefront of his agenda.

He highlighted the importance of collaboration in overcoming these challenges.

“One person alone cannot do it all. We need collaborative thinking and teamwork.

Leaders must listen, remain humble, and work with integrity. When people see that you are genuinely committed to their well-being, they will join hands with you to achieve common goals,” he noted.

Mr. Anato concluded by calling on all residents in and around Krachi Nchumuru to support the Assembly with ideas and initiatives to help propel the district forward.
