A group calling itself ‘concerned members, faithful and sympathisers of the ruling New Patriotic Party (NPP)’ in the Juaboso district of the Western North region, has expressed concerned about the conduct of the NPP constituency chairman for Juaboso, Kwabena Kroko Affum, which they says could affect the fortunes of the party in 2024 general elections.
According to the spokesperson for the group, Kwabena Kroko Affum who double as the elected assembly member for Sefwi Boizan, the chairman is leading an agenda against small scale miners who are mainly staunch NPP members and faithful by using some group of media within the western north region to undermine their activities.
According to the concerned NPP group within the Juaboso constituency, the chairman has allegedly paid monies to some media guys to concoct and publish falsehood against them with the intention of collapsing their small-scale mining businesses which they have invested much monies into.
Samuel Appiah, the spokesman alleged that the Juaboso NPP chairman does not show any respect to authorities within the Juaboso district, including his own District chief executive, the regional chairman of the NPP, the regional minister, the district police commander for Juaboso.
Mr Kwabena Kroko Affum has raised series of insults to all these personalities including the traditional authorities in his electoral area including the Paramount chief of the Sefwi Wiawso Traditional Area.
The group said the NPP government under President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo Addo has initiated a lot of developmental projects in the Juaboso district since assumption of office in 2017, but the conduct of the NPP chairman for Juaboso would affect the chances of Hon Martha Kwayie Manu, the Parliamentary candidate and that of the presidential candidate come 2024.
