There was a chaotic scene at the New Patriotic Party (NPP) National Executive Committee (NEC) at Alisa Hotel in Accra on Thursday, June 25, 2026, following a confrontation between security personnel and ‘Ken Must Go’ protesters.
According to eyewitness reports, security officers attempted to control the protesters gathered near the venue in a demonstration linked to internal party grievances.
Reports suggest the disturbance involved rival groups of supporters, with some chanting “Ken Must Go”.
The protesters, who were dressed in red headbands, later confronted Minority Leader Alexander Afenyo-Markin and attempted to block his vehicle when he attempted to leave the National Executive Committee (NEC) meeting.
The chaotic scene quickly escalated, resulting in a physical altercation between some individuals and the supporters who were trying to prevent Afenyo-Markin’s vehicle from leaving.
Viral videos circulating on social media captured scenes of supporters chanting slogans, “Ken Must Go”.
The Ken Must Go’ protesters demanded the sacking of Ken Agyapong from the NPP, arguing that the party can do without him.
Meanwhile, the National Organiser of the NPP, Henry Nana Boakye, has confirmed that the party has received petitions from some members and Members of Parliament calling for the dismissal of Hon. Kennedy Agyapong from the party.
According to Nana Boakye, the petitions have been referred to the party’s disciplinary committee for review, and the party expects to receive a report on the matter within the next two weeks.
He disclosed that the decision was taken by the party’s National Executive Committee (NEC) and National Council at a meeting held yesterday, Thursday, June 25.
He revealed that the NPP’s highest decision-making organs had unanimously agreed to refer all petitions against Ken Agyapong to the disciplinary committee for consideration.
Nana Boakye disclosed that the disciplinary body has been given two weeks to investigate the petitions and submit its recommendations.
Speaking on Joy FM’s Top Story on Thursday, Henry Nana Boakye stated, “The decision was that all of these petitions must be referred to the National Disciplinary Committee”.
“Let’s manage for the next two weeks, and when we receive the report, and a decision is made, it will be communicated appropriately,” Mr Boakye added.
Also, some members of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) Minority Caucus have petitioned the New Patriotic Party (NPP) Minority leadership and presidential candidate Dr Mahamudu Bawumia, demanding action over Ken Agyapong’s anti-party conduct.
The NPP MPs accused Ken Agyapong of spreading misinformation and publicly sabotaging the party, adding that his outbursts were “inconsistent with the principles of party discipline”.
According to the NPP MPs, Ken Agyapong’s conduct is a Pandora’s box for Indiscipline, which risks emboldening others to act against the party.
Parts of the petition read, “Erosion of Leadership Authority & Confidence: Failure to act weakens the authority of the Minority Leadership and brings its decisions into public disrepute, a dangerous precedent for any organised political institution. We must remember that Parliament, as an institution, is clothed with the responsibility to protect the interests of the citizenry. Any attempt to bring the reputation of the parliamentary party, especially from a former Member of Parliament, must be treated with the contempt it deserves.
A Pandora’s Box for Indiscipline: Left unaddressed, Hon. Agyapong’s conduct risks emboldening others to act against sanctioned parliamentary party or party decisions, normalising indiscipline at the very moment unity is most needed.
Damage to the Party’s 2028 Ambitions: Public infighting of this nature clouds the object of the mission. As it is now, the objective of the visit to Afari hospital has been undermined, and the public attention has rather swayed from seeking redress by the government to what appears as an internal wrangling within the NPP over an issue that is totally needless. This situation erodes voter confidence and hence threatens the party’s quest to win election 2028”.
