Cletus Seidu Dapilah, Member of Parliament for Jirapa, has strongly criticised the New Patriotic Party (NPP) for what he describes as a misplaced approach to rebuilding the party after its defeat in the 2024 general elections.
Speaking in an interview with Lily Mohammed on GHToday on GHOne TV on Tuesday, June 24, 2025, Dapilah stated that the NPP had failed to learn from its electoral loss and was making the mistake of rebuilding from the top rather than from the grassroots a strategy he believes is bound to fail. "My friends in the NPP have not learnt their lessons.
You cannot organise a party using a top-bottom approach.
When the foundation (the base) is weak, you will lose elections.
