NPP stalwart Dr.
Arthur Kobina Kennedy, has issued a blistering critique of his party's recent record in government, urging a radical overhaul of its internal democratic processes and a public apology to Ghanaians for what he described as "reckless and incompetent governance." Kennedy rejected calls within the party to fast-track the selection of a new presidential candidate, insisting that such a move would only mask unresolved cracks within the NPP's structure during an appearance TV3's KeyPoints programme. "We should borrow from the American and Canadian systems," he explained. "Let every party member vote.
You can't bribe everybody in Bantama or Walewale.
It will demonetise politics and make the party more accountable." He added that the key lesson from the NPP's bruising 2020 electoral outcome was not to shrink democracy but to expand it. "The lesson from 2020 is not to have less democracy but more," he said. "We must open up our primaries, apologise for our mistakes and stop pretending shortcuts will fix the rot.
