Peter Mawuli Ekpe, a once-loyal member of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) and former Vice Chairman for the Nhyiaeso constituency, has announced his defection to the ruling New Patriotic Party (NPP).

In a video, Ekpe explained his decision to cross political lines ahead of the crucial 2024 elections, citing the impactful policies of the NPP as the turning point.

For Ekpe, the NPP's Free SHS policy was a game-changer. "I remember challenging them.

I said if they could truly implement Free SHS, I would switch my allegiance," he revealed.
