Jennifer Oforiwaah Queen, a Deputy Communications Director of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), has launched a scathing attack on Nana Boadi Amponim Obo-Dade III, the Krontihene of Akyem Asuom, over his remarks labelling the NPP’s presidential candidates as ‘sankwas five’.
Jennifer Oforiwaah Queen tagged the Krontihene of Akyem Asuom as a chief in a small space who has been destooled, and is speaking filthy words.
He further alleged that Nana Boadi Amponim Obo-Dade III may have taken red to be able to make such a reckless statement.
Reacting to the Krontihene in an interview on Angel TV on December 9, 2025, Jennifer Queen stated, “Even President Mahama, if Dr Bawumia does something he doesn’t like, there is a way he would address the issue without openly insulting Dr Bawumia.
“President Mahama himself would not insult President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo, so how much more you, a chief in a small space who has even been destooled, speaking such filthy words to the party?
“Dressing indecently like that and insulting us… The way he is ranting and saying these things, I don’t know what is wrong with him, whether he has taken red or something and even that, I doubt he would make such a reckless statement.”
Her remarks come on the back of Nana Boadi Amponim Obo-dade III fuming about the standard of individuals contesting for the New Patriotic Party’s (NPP) flagbearer election.
According to the Akyem Krontihene, all five NPP flagbearer aspirants should be placed on one ballot to contest President John Mahama.
The Krontihene of Akyem Asuom further tagged all five NPP presidential aspirations as ‘the sankwas five’.
He added that the sankwas five cannot be compared to the NPP of Da Rocha, Victor Owusu, Kofi Busia, Prof Adu-Boahen, Peter Ala Adjetey, and J.A. Kufuor, Nana Boadi Obo-dade III.
He asserted that the NPP had significantly declined in terms of quality human resources.
Speaking to the media on Sunday, December 7, 2025, the Akyem Krontihene stated, “Look, the NPP of Da Rocha, Victor Owusu, Kofi Busia, Prof Adu-Boahen, Ala Adjetey, J.A. Kufuor – those men of value and integrity – are not what we have today.
I tell you without mincing words that the five people contesting to be flagbearers are just sankwas compared to those. I call them the Sankwas Five.”
“If President Mahama should decide to contest, this is how the scale would be: all the Sankwas Five; Dr Bawumia, Kennedy Agyapong, Dr Bryan Acheampong, Adutwum, and Kwabena Agyei, all five of them should not even go and choose one, they should be placed on one ballot paper against President Mahama. This is how the scale would be, all of them there and Mahama here” he said.
