The New Patriotic Party (NPP) has established a seven-member ad hoc committee to manage issues related to the recent amnesty granted to suspended members and other internal concerns currently before the party.
At a media briefing in Accra on Wednesday, November 5, 2025, the party’s General Secretary, Justin Kodua Frimpong, announced that the committee will be chaired by Kwame Anyimadu-Antwi, Member of Parliament for Asante Akim Central.
According to him, the committee will be responsible for providing “strategic guidance on the scope and implementation” of the amnesty initiative.
“This Committee will advise the Party on the extent, scope, and implementation of the amnesty measures,” he stated.
Other members of the committee include Peter Mac Manu (former National Chairman), Divine Agorhum, Rabi Salifu, and Ernest Kumi.
Meanwhile, the National Steering Committee has referred a petition filed against the Member of Parliament for Asante Akim South, Kwaku Asante Boateng, to the National Disciplinary Committee for consideration.
Mr. Kodua explained that the referral was made after the Steering Committee’s meeting on Tuesday, November 3, 2025, in response to a complaint lodged by concerned party members.
“At its meeting on Tuesday, November 3, 2025, the National Steering Committee resolved to refer a petition submitted by concerned party members against Hon. Kwaku Asante Boateng, Member of Parliament for Asante Akim South, to the National Disciplinary Committee,” he said.
The General Secretary further stated that the party “condemns in no uncertain terms” the alleged comments made by the MP, describing them as “inconsistent with the principles and values of the NPP.”
Mr. Asante Boateng recently stirred controversy when he reportedly described former Vice President and 2028 NPP flagbearer hopeful, Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, as an “outsider” and “not fit” to lead the party — remarks that have since attracted strong reactions from within the NPP.
