Three ‘controversial’ proposals submitted for amendment in the constitution of the governing NPP have been rejected.

This was disclosed by President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo in his address at the party’s Extraordinary Delegates Conference ongoing in the Ashanti Regional capital, Kumasi.

President Akufo-Addo in his speech said some of the proposed amendments “will be a disaster” if adopted.

His remark was later reiterated by the majority leader, Osei Kyei Mensah-Bonsu who stated that two of the parliamentary group’s proposals would be withdrawn.

The proposals are;
1. For Members of Parliament to appoint constituency executives and
2. For party members with dual citizenship to be disqualified from contesting for any party position
3. For the flag bearer of the party to be considered as the leader of the party.

Meanwhile, the acting National Chairman of the NPP, Freddie Blay, called on delegates to ensure that they resolve any lingering issues they might have before they leave the Conference.
