The Office of former President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo has firmly denied recent media reports alleging that the ex-president attempted to interfere with the New Patriotic Party’s (NPP) upcoming National Delegates Conference.
In a statement released on July 14, 2025, the former President’s office described the claims — published by Otecmghana and GhanaWeb — as “completely false.” The reports had suggested that Akufo-Addo sought to overturn the party’s decision on early primaries and push for a postponement of the much-anticipated July 19 conference.
“For the avoidance of doubt, we wish to state emphatically that these reports are completely false,” the statement read.
The Office clarified that former President Akufo-Addo has been out of the country for some time and has not submitted any petition or made any request to the party on the matter.
“He does not have any such intentions,” the release added.
It further accused unnamed individuals behind the publications of pursuing a personal agenda unrelated to the progress of the New Patriotic Party.
The strongly-worded statement ended by reaffirming the former President’s commitment to the unity and future of the NPP.
