Former New Patriotic Party (NPP) Deputy General Secretary, Lawyer Nana Obiri Boahen, has strongly denied accusations that he was responsible for the party’s defeat in the 2024 elections, particularly in the Bono Region.
The criticisms arose following his comments about a reported feud between Dormaahene Osagyefo Oseadeeyo Dr. Agyeman Badu II and Asantehene Otumfuo Osei Tutu II.
In an interview, Obiri Boahen expressed frustration at being blamed for the loss, clarifying that he was not part of the NPP campaign team. He dismissed accusations of betraying the party, citing broader issues, such as a security breakdown, as more significant factors contributing to the defeat.
He also advised party members to avoid attacking individuals like Lawyer Andy Appiah Kubi, Eugene Boakye Antwi, and Edward Akwasi Ennin for speaking out after the loss.
