Dr Bawumia must call Abronye to order or risk alienating Christian voters – Concerned NPP lecturers warn
Share on FacebookShare on Twitter

A group of university lecturers affiliated with the New Patriotic Party (NPP), calling themselves the Concerned NPP Lecturers, have expressed deep concern over what they describe as “unchecked indiscipline” within the party, particularly the recent verbal attacks by the Bono Regional chairman Kwame Baffoe, popularly known as Abronye DC.

The lecturers said that Abronye’s latest insults against Archbishop Nicholas Duncan-Williams represent a new low in the party’s public discourse and constitute an “affront to the Christian community” in Ghana. They warned that continued silence from party leaders, especially Vice President Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia — who has so far benefited from Abronye’s aggressive political defense — could be interpreted as tacit approval.

“We are deeply troubled by Dr. Bawumia’s silence, as he remains the primary beneficiary of Abronye’s reckless actions,” the group said in a prepared statement read by Dr. Stephen Sarfo Adu-Yeboah of the University of Cape Coast on Tuesday, July 1, 2025. “Leadership demands decisive action to uphold civility. Dr. Bawumia must immediately condemn Abronye’s divisive attacks, including those against Archbishop Duncan-Williams, or risk being seen as complicit in this affront to our values and Ghana’s Christian community.”

The Concerned Lecturers noted that although the party had issued a brief disassociation from Abronye’s comments, they considered it “inadequate and lacking in urgency.” They called for stronger disciplinary action and urged the Vice President to personally distance himself from the controversial communicator.

They described Archbishop Duncan-Williams as “a pivotal figure in Ghana’s charismatic Christian community,” whose contributions to national peace and moral leadership ought to be respected across the political spectrum.

According to the group, the NPP has historically upheld high standards of discipline and decorum — even sanctioning senior officials when necessary — but those standards were now being eroded by the impunity of party surrogates like Abronye.

“This is not about free speech,” Dr. Richard Amoako of All Nations University added. “It is about reckless speech that alienates the very people whose values we claim to uphold. As lecturers who have taught and served in various parts of the country, we know how deeply these comments have hurt our students, congregations, and the broader Christian community.”

The press conference is part of a broader campaign by the lecturers to restore what they call “discipline, democracy, and honest dialogue” within the NPP. Their statement also touched on the party’s internal restructuring process and the need to make the Prof. Mike Ocquaye Committee Report public — but the sharpest rebuke was clearly aimed at what they termed “the normalization of insult politics.”

“We cannot allow surrogates to insult men of God, attack party elders, and reduce political discourse to gutter theatrics — all in the name of loyalty to a candidate,” the statement concluded.

The Concerned NPP Lecturers say they will continue to speak out on matters affecting the soul of the party and have urged other party intellectuals to do the same before “discipline becomes the exception rather than the rule.”
