A Founding Member of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), Dr Nyaho Nyaho-Tamakloe, has called for a restructuring of the party’s leadership.

Speaking on JoyNews on Monday, July 14, 2025, Dr Nyaho Nyaho-Tamakloe stated that the New Patriotic Party’s executives — from the chairman to the lowest-ranking members — must resign.

He argued that the leadership had failed to mend internal divisions and rebuild the party from the grassroots, especially after its abysmal performance in the recent elections.

Dr Nyaho-Tamakloe said that the party should have begun rebuilding its base and reconnecting with grassroots supporters before prioritising the election of its leaders through a top-down approach.

“The problems of leadership, fighting are leaguing. At the moment, we have more than six. You don't run a political party that way. You have to strengthen the party, especially when not quite long ago, you lost an election.

“You make sure you strengthen the party first from the grassroots up. That is how political parties are built, not from the top to bottom. It will never work. The present national executive must resign en bloc, and then they find an IMC to organise the party from the start, and then we build the party up again. And I can assure you that will work,” he said.

To Dr Nyaho-Tamakloe, this approach would help rebuild the party from scratch and make it more appealing to both its supporters and the general public.
