The National Executive Committee (NEC) of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) is currently engaged in a crucial meeting at the Alisa Hotel in Accra, deliberating on proposed constitutional reforms that could significantly reshape the party's internal power dynamics and electoral processes.
Chaired by the party's First Vice Chairman, Danquah Smith Buttey, the meeting has drawn top-tier party leadership, including former Vice President Dr Mahamudu Bawumia, General Secretary Justin Kodua Frimpong, Majority Leader Alexander Afenyo-Markin, and Ashanti Regional Chairman Bernard Antwi-Boasiako.
At the heart of the discussions is a proposal from the party's Constitution Review Committee recommending a sweeping review of the NPP's internal rules.
Among the most contentious proposals is a suggestion to elect the party's presidential candidate before national executive officers - a reversal of the current practice.
