Justin Frimpong Kodua, the NPP General Secretary, has declared that the party is very impressed with the work of Alexander Afenyo-Markin and the Minority leadership.
The NPP General Secretary dismissed claims that the NPP plans to replace Afenyo-Markin as minority leader.
Speaking in an interview on TV3 on Friday, February 13, 2025, Justin Kodua stated, “It is something that has not come to the table, and I don’t see why, at this point, the party would want to change leadership in Parliament. For what reason? So, it is something that has not come to the table.”
“The party is overwhelmingly satisfied. We know the work that the mighty Minority, under the leadership of Afenyo-Markin, has been doing, and, certainly, we will continue to give them all the needed support to enable them to continue to perform their job. We are very impressed and very elated about the work that they are doing,” he stressed.
Justin Kodua further added that the NPP continues on its current reorganisation path, adding that he is convinced the party will return to power in 2028.
“If, as a party, we are able to continue the reorganisation that we are undertaking, I am very convinced that in 2028 we shall come back to power. All that Ghanaians are expecting from us is to prove and show them that, yes, we mean business, and we have taken our reorganisation seriously,” he boldly added.
Also, Gabby Otchere-Darko, a legal practitioner and stalwart of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), has broken his silence on alleged calls to remove the Minority Leader, Alexander Afenyo-Markin, from his position as Minority Leader in Parliament.
According to Gabby Otchere-Darko, he has not heard of any calls for the removal of Afenyo-Markin as Minority Leader.
Gabby Otchere-Darko highlighted that the NPP Minority in Parliament has been strong in Parliament over the last 12 months, adding that Afenyo-Markin’s recent visit to NPP presidential candidate, Dr Mahamudu Bawumia, shows they can work together.
Speaking in an interview on Asaasepa on February 3, 2026, Gabby explained, “I haven’t heard calls that they should remove Afenyo-Markin, but I think the Minority has done well. They have held this party together for the past twelve months.
“I also saw footage of him with the presidential candidate, and I am confident the party, in its wisdom, will remain stable,” he added.
In related news, Henry Nana Boakye, the National Organiser of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), has revealed that the party is very happy with the Minority Leader, Alexander Afenyo-Markin.
According to Nana B, the Minority leader has been a very formidable leader for the NPP in parliament in their difficult times.
Nana B stressed that it would be in the interest of the NPP to allow Afenyo-Markin continue to work.
The NPP National Organiser further noted that some people are running their own commentary over claims that the NPP is planning to replace Afenyo-Markin as Minority leader.
Speaking in an interview on Citi Eyewitness News on Monday, February 2, Nana Boakye explained, “Hon Afenyo-Markin has been an outstanding leader, especially for us in these difficult times. He’s been very formidable in parliament. In fact, for me I would say that it will be in the interest of the party for him to continue his work.
“…The party is very happy with the work he is doing, how he puts things together, and his leadership. We are very happy with the work he is doing…People are just running their own commentary.”
