NPP’s next flagbearer must not be given absolute power over the party—Eugene Boakye Antwi

Eugene Boakye Antwi, former MP for Subin, believes the New Patriotic Party must reconsider the powers of its flagbearer in future elections.

He argues that the party should avoid selecting a leader who repeats past mistakes, which led to their loss in the 2024 elections.

Antwi emphasizes the importance of a strong partnership between the flagbearer, the party, and the government, with clear communication and accountability.

He also questions the roles of key party executives like the national chairman and general secretary during the campaign, highlighting that flagbearers often neglect party leaders in favor of their own campaign teams.

Antwi criticizes the culture of fear around elected officials, where people avoid challenging them due to their influence.
