IMANI President Defends NPP Executives Over Election Defeat

Franklin Cudjoe, President of IMANI Africa, has rejected calls to blame New Patriotic Party (NPP) executives for the party’s poor 2024 election performance, arguing the responsibility lies with the government’s failure to address economic hardships.

The policy analyst questioned how party officials could convince voters amid widespread dissatisfaction with the administration’s performance.

“Leave your executives alone,” Cudjoe stated, emphasizing that the governing party’s challenges stemmed from policy failures rather than organizational shortcomings.

His comments come amid internal NPP debates about accountability for the electoral defeat, with some members demanding leadership changes.

Cudjoe’s analysis suggests the election outcome reflected public judgment on governance rather than party management issues.
