Paul Afoko is best placed to unite a divided NPP – Broadcast Journalist, Abdul Moomen

Northern chairman argument Mr Moomen also rejected an argument reportedly being made by some delegates that the NPP’s National Chairman should not come from northern Ghana because the party’s presidential candidate, Dr Mahamudu Bawumia, is from the north.

He believes Mr Afoko’s experience within the party, including his removal as National Chairman during one of its most turbulent periods, gives him a unique understanding of the divisions that have confronted the NPP.

His endorsement of Mr Afoko comes as the NPP’s National Chairmanship contest intensifies, with several candidates seeking to lead the party through a period of internal reflection and rebuilding.
