Kow Essuman urges Ablekuma West NPP members to attend Electoral Affairs Committee hearing

The New Patriotic Party's (NPP) Ablekuma West Constituency has been invited to participate in the Electoral Affairs Committee hearing into alleged irregularities that marred the party's constituency elections. Kow Abaka Essuman, Chairman of the Martin de Porres Polling Station, has urged party members and other interested stakeholders to actively participate in the hearing.

The Electoral Affairs Committee of the NPP National Council has invited constituency officers and interested parties from affected constituencies, including Ablekuma West, to appear before it on Monday, July 20, 2026, at the party's headquarters.

Some of the issues to be addressed at the hearing include outstanding irregularities that remain unresolved. Mr. Essuman acknowledged that some concerns raised by members had already been addressed, including the restoration of his name to the constituency electoral register. However, he maintained that several outstanding issues remained unresolved and should be thoroughly examined by the committee.

"Some of the irregularities complained of have since been corrected, including the restoration of my own name to the electoral register. However, many other irregularities remain outstanding and unresolved, and it is right that they now come before the Committee," he stated.

Mr. Essuman commended members for pursuing their grievances through the party's internal structures. "The members of Ablekuma West have demonstrated their belief in the internal processes of our Party. They have raised their concerns meticulously and through the proper channels," he said.

The hearing is a critical step in strengthening the party ahead of future electoral contests. Mr. Essuman appealed for unity within the constituency, stressing that resolving the internal disputes should be the focus. "Above all, let our focus be unity within the constituency, so that we can prosecute a vigorous campaign to retake power from the NDC. This hearing is a critical step in that direction," he concluded.

The outcome of the Electoral Affairs Committee hearing will be closely watched by party members and observers alike. The hearing is scheduled to take place on Monday, July 20, 2026, at the party's headquarters in the Ablekuma West Constituency.
