NPP to sanction members found guilty of election-related violence

The New Patriotic Party (NPP) has indicated that it will not shield members implicated in acts of violence or other criminal offences during its ongoing constituency executive elections, stressing that appropriate disciplinary action will be taken after investigations and any related court proceedings are concluded.

Mohammed reaffirmed the NPP’s commitment to the rule of law, insisting that while the party would respect the work of law enforcement agencies, it would also ensure that members found culpable are subjected to its internal disciplinary procedures in line with due process.

The party said it would allow the Ghana Police Service and other relevant state institutions to complete their investigations before activating its internal disciplinary mechanisms against any member found to have violated the law or the party’s constitution.
