NPP Rift in Ashanti Region: Is Wontumi's Bid Facing Internal Opposition?

Ashanti Region NPP Executive Actions Questioned Amidst Wontumi's National Chairman Bid Kumasi, Ghana – A recent video circulating online features an interview with a New Patriotic Party (NPP) sympathizer leveling harsh criticism against the Ashanti Regional executives of the party. The interviewee alleges that the executives' public display of support for Chairman Wontumi's ambition to become national chairman is disingenuous and merely a calculated political maneuver. The interview took place outside the regional party headquarters on May 30th, 2025. The interviewee claims, "Executives of the Ashanti Regional NPP hate Chairman Wontumi over his National Chairman ambitions, if not, why’re they not here." He argues that the executives' absence from key events and press conferences demonstrates a lack of genuine support, contrasting their public statements with their actions. This perceived lack of unity within the party is fueling concern amongst supporters. The video, while short, highlights a potential rift within the Ashanti Regional NPP. The interviewee's strong words and accusations raise questions about the party's internal dynamics and the level of support for Chairman Wontumi's bid. Further investigation is needed to fully understand the situation and verify the claims made in the video. The incident underscores the importance of transparency and open communication within political parties.
