The General Secretary of the (NPP), Justin Frimpong Kodua, has strongly rebuked founding member Dr Nyaho Nyaho-Tamakloe, for his recent critical remarks regarding the party's leadership and response to the arrest of Chairman Wontumi.
His reaction follows statements made by Dr Nyaho Nyaho Tamakloe during an interview with JoyNews on May 30, 2025, that "where is the NPP National Chairman" - suggesting an apparent absence of the NPP leadership in the brouhaha surrounding the arrest and subsequent detention of Wontumi at the Economic and Organised Crime Office (EOCO) headquarters.
Responding to these claims on JoyNews on May 30, 2025, Justin Kodua expressed surprise and disappointment at Dr Tamakloe's assertion that the party "currently has no leadership." He specifically took issue with Dr Tamakloe's perceived lack of concern over the manner of Chairman Wontumi's arrest. "I am very surprised that Dr Nyaho Nyaho-Tamakloe, a founding member of our party, chose not to criticise the manner in which Chairman Wontumi was arrested," Kodua stated. "He saw nothing wrong with the rough and rambo style our Chairman was taken into custody.
That in itself is troubling." He added.
