NPP challenges Muntaka over claim that wanted suspect was elected youth organizer
Haruna Mohammed (L) said Muntaka's (R) claim isn't true The New Patriotic Party (NPP) has challenged claims by the Minister of the Interior, Mohammed-Mubarak Muntaka, that a prime suspect in the 2024 election violence at Nyankpala was elected the party’s Youth Organiser in Tolon.
His comments were in response to claims by Muntaka Mubarak on Monday, August 24, 2026, that Alhaji Abdul Latif Copshe, a prime suspect in the violence at Nyankpala in the Tolon Constituency during the 2024 general election, was declared the winner of the NPP's Constituency Youth Organiser election despite reportedly fleeing the community after the incident.
Asked whether he knew the person referred to by the Interior Minister, Haruna Mohammed said the man previously held the Youth Organiser position but is no longer the constituency Youth Organiser.
