The New Patriotic Party (NPP) has its roots deeply grounded in unity and national inclusiveness. Our tradition stems from the United Party (UP), a political force formed through the coming together of parties and groups from across the length and breadth of Ghana. From its very foundation, the NPP has never been and can never be a tribal party.
It is, therefore, worrying when comments and postures from some senior members of our Party appear to suggest that tribal considerations should play a role in our internal and national political discourse. This is not only dangerous but also undermines the very principles on which our party was built.
Hon. Bryan Acheampong, as a senior figure in our party, must take note that tribal politics will not help the NPP. What will sustain and strengthen our party is unity, fairness, inclusiveness, and a focus on policies that bring progress to all Ghanaians, regardless of ethnic background.
We urge all party members, especially our leaders, to remain committed to the founding vision of the NPP as a broad-based national party that represents the aspirations of every Ghanaian. Divisive tendencies must be rejected in order to safeguard the future of our tradition and ensure victory in future elections.
