Concerned NPP-USA members demand release of election album, raise transparency concerns ahead of branch polls

Concerned members of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) USA Branch called on the branch leadership to immediately release the official election album, warning that delays and alleged administrative lapses could undermine confidence in the upcoming branch elections. The group expressed concern that with only eight days to the elections, members had still not been given access to the official voters' register, which they described as a fundamental requirement for a credible electoral process. They stated, "With only eight days remaining before the Branch elections, the leadership has yet to release the official election album, a basic requirement for a credible electoral process. This unprecedented delay has fuelled widespread anxiety among members and raised legitimate questions about the commitment of the current Branch leadership to transparency and fairness."

The group alleged that some chapter elections began shortly after midnight without members having prior access to the election album, making it impossible for candidates and voters to verify the electoral register before voting. They further claimed that confusion over election procedures had left many members uncertain about the rules governing the process, while registration for the July 24-26 Branch Conference had reportedly slowed as members remained unsure whether the conference and its electoral activities would proceed as scheduled. These developments, according to the group, have weakened confidence in the internal electoral process.
