An NPP elder should have appeared before Kumasi Traditional Council, not the General Secretary - Amoako Baah

In a recent statement, NPP elder Dr. Amoako Baah emphasized that it was inappropriate for the party's General Secretary to represent the New Patriotic Party (NPP) before the Kumasi Traditional Council. He argued that a senior party figure should have taken on this responsibility to show respect and uphold the significance of traditional leadership in the Ashanti Region. Dr. Baah’s comments come in light of a gathering where key issues concerning party dynamics and local governance were discussed, highlighting the need for stronger relationships between political entities and traditional authorities. His remarks suggest that engaging with local leaders is crucial for fostering unity and cooperation within the community, particularly as elections approach. The NPP has faced scrutiny over its approach to traditional councils, which play a vital role in Ghanaian society. By advocating for more appropriate representation in such forums, Dr. Baah calls for greater attention to tradition and respect in political interactions, aiming to strengthen the bond between politics and cultural institutions in Ghana's democratic landscape.
