Freddie Blay, a former National Chairman of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) has fired shots at Prof Kwabena Frimpong-Boateng over his recent criticism of the party.

The former NPP Chairman asserted that Prof Frimpong-Boateng’s comments were deeply insulting.

According to Freddie Blay, Prof Kwabena Frimpong-Boateng stems from the openness of democratic systems, which allows individuals to freely express their views.

Speaking on Citi Eyewitness News on Tuesday, January 27, Freddie Blay stated, “Anybody who talks like that is talking irresponsibly, especially when he claims to be a member of the party. It is reckless when you talk like that. It is democracy that has suffered.

When you say you are going by democracy, you allow people to say what they want, and then you defend them with your life, even when they are talking foolishly, you take it like that,” he said.

Also, Nana Akomea, a former Managing Director of the State Transport Company (STC), has fired back at Professor Kwabena Frimpong-Boateng after he described the New Patriotic Party (NPP) as a “fake party.”

Speaking in an interview on UTV on January 15, 2026, Nana Akomea noted that Prof Frimpong-Boateng is not in a position to pronounce NPP as fake, as he does not know what is going on internally in the party.

According to Nana Akomea, Prof Frimpong-Boateng claimed not to know that the General Secretary of the NPP raises concerns about his commitment to party affairs.

Nana Akomea on UTV stated, “Professor Frimpong-Boateng did not speak well, and I pray that when he reflects on what he said, he will realise he spoke wrongly and come back to apologise. Who wouldn’t want Professor Frimpong-Boateng in his party?

“Yet he claims he does not even know the General Secretary of the party, who has been elected for about three years. If he doesn’t know him, then who is fake now? He is not in a position to make pronouncements about the party because he does not know what is going on within it,” he said.

Their comments follow: Prof. Kwabena Frimpong Boateng described the present NPP as fake.

According to Prof Frimpong Boateng, he does not consider himself a member of the current NPP as it no longer reflects the values of the NPP of old.

Speaking on Channel One TV’s The Point of View on Monday, January 12, Prof Frimpong was questioned if he still sees himself as a member of the NPP. He stated, “The present NPP is not NPP. It is fake. From what I see now, this is not the NPP I used to know.”

“Not the fake one. The real one is there. It is a virtual thing. The members are in the background,” he said.

Meanwhile, Justin Kodua Frimpong, the General Secretary New Patriotic Party (NPP), in a statement, has announced that the party has initiated a move to sack Prof Frimpong Boateng.
