The New Patriotic Party (NPP) has referred former Dome-Kwabenya Member of Parliament, Sarah Adwoa Safo, to its National Disciplinary Committee following her recent comments regarding the party’s expected defeat in the 2024 elections.
The move comes after the NPP had earlier issued a directive cautioning members against making public statements that could foster division within the party.
In a statement released on Thursday, March 20, 2025, NPP General Secretary, Justin Kodua Frimpong, condemned Adwoa Safo’s remarks, saying they contradicted party directives and undermined efforts to rebuild the party.
“The directive clearly stated that all party members must avoid discussing party issues that could create unrest, negativism, and disaffection on media platforms. Her comments not only disregarded this directive but also worked against the party’s efforts to rebuild and move forward,” Kodua Frimpong said.
He further noted that as a former Member of Parliament, former Deputy Majority Leader, and former Minister of State under the previous NPP government, Safo was expected to demonstrate leadership and adhere to the principles of discipline, loyalty, and unity that the party is known for.
Her failure to comply, Kodua Frimpong added, not only tarnishes her own image but also violates Article 3(5) of the NPP’s constitution, which mandates members to promote and defend the good name of the party.
“In violation of both the party’s constitution and earlier directives, Hon. Sarah Adwoa Safo is hereby referred to the National Disciplinary Committee for further action,” the statement concluded.
The disciplinary action marks the latest move by the NPP to ensure unity and discipline within its ranks as the party prepares for the upcoming election.
