The New Patriotic Party (NPP) in Tatale Sanguli has suspended 58 members over alleged disloyalty in recent elections. A letter signed by the constituency chairman claims these members worked against the official party candidate during the elections.
The chairman’s letter, addressed to national and regional executives, states the suspension aligns with the party’s constitution.
One of the suspended members, Napare Prosper, a former constituency communications officer, strongly denied the allegations.
Napare Prosper has demanded the chairman provide evidence within 24 hours to justify the suspension.
“I have seen the letter on social media saying that I have been suspended for not supporting the MP, but I want to state on record that I did not campaign against the duly confirmed candidate.
“I did not in any way campaign against the candidate, and I did not breach any of the party’s constitution, so they should give us a fair hearing.”
This development has sparked discussions within the constituency as members await further action from the party’s leadership.
