The Chief Executive Officer of the National Entrepreneurship & Innovation Programme (NEIP), Kofi Ofosu Nkansah, has called on Alan Kyerematen to take personal responsibility for his failure to win the party's recent presidential primaries.
According to Nkansah, Mr Kyerematen's loss should not be blamed on any so-called "systemic mafia" within the party, but rather on his own shortcomings during the campaign.
This follows Kyerematen's comments alluding to a possible internal conspiracy that derailed his presidential ambitions on the party's ticket.
Mr Nkansah, in a Facebook post, emphasised that the NPP's primaries were conducted fairly, and every candidate had an equal opportunity to win the support of delegates.
He argued that Kyerematen's failure to secure victory was due to his inability to build a strong grassroots base and connect with the party's rank-and-file members.
