The New Patriotic Party (NPP) has set up a joint committee to review the final proposals submitted by the Constitution Review Committee (CRC) to President John Dramani Mahama and advise the party’s National Council on an official position.
The party’s National Organiser, Henry Nana Boakye, disclosed this in a statement on Facebook on Tuesday, December 23, following the CRC’s submission of its final report to the President on Monday.
Nana Boakye explained that the committee was previously constituted as part of the NPP’s engagement in the constitution review process, tasked with developing and presenting the party’s proposals to the CRC.
The committee is jointly chaired by the Ranking Member of Parliament’s Constitutional and Legal Affairs Committee, Kwame Anyimadu-Antwi, and the Chairman of the NPP’s Constitutional and Legal Committee, Frank Davies Esq.
“With the submission of the CRC’s final proposals to the President, the General Secretary has directed the joint committee to carefully study the proposals and advise the National Council accordingly,” Nana Boakye said.
He emphasised that the move reflects the party’s structured and consultative approach to constitutional reform, ensuring its response is based on thorough analysis and collective deliberation.
The joint committee comprises senior party figures and MPs, including Hassan Tampuli, O.B. Amoah, Nana Agyei Baffour Awuah, Kojo Oppong Nkrumah, Gary Nimako Esq., Martin Adjei-Mensah Korsah, Dr. Mahama Tiah Abdul-Kabiru, Fati Abubakar, and Hanifa Adjoa Yahaya.
Nana Boakye urged party members and supporters to exercise restraint in public commentary on the CRC proposals while the internal review is ongoing.
“All party members are encouraged to be cautious with their commentary on the proposals of the CRC as we await the outcome of the joint committee’s study,” he said.
He assured that the NPP’s official position on the final proposals would be communicated in due course, signalling the party’s intention to speak with one voice once consultations are concluded.
“The position of the Party on the final proposals submitted yesterday will soon be made public,” Nana Boakye added.
