Professor Kwabena Frimpong-Boateng, a former minister of environment, science, technology, and innovation, has lambasted the New Patriotic Party (NPP) leadership for attempting to oust him from the party through disciplinary procedures.

In an interview with Asempa FM’s Ekoosisen on Tuesday, January 13, 2026, he said that those in charge of the disciplinary process against him ought to leave the party.

“No, I’m staying at the party. He said, “They should leave the party because they are the fake ones. The true party will stand.”

The National Executive Committee’s (NEC) disciplinary actions, according to Prof. Frimpong-Boateng, are an unnecessary diversion.

He claims he has no plans to address the accusations made against him in front of any committee.

He declared, “I will not honour any invitation from the NEC to waste my time,” indicating what seems to be a total collapse in his rapport with the party’s administrative leadership.

 

The former minister added that he had not heard from the party in an official capacity.

“Even the General Secretary is unknown to me. I’ve never had a conversation with him. I’m awaiting the party’s formal statement. He remarked, “This whole thing is funny.”

Prof. Frimpong-Boateng also voiced his dissatisfaction at what he called the party’s slow demise, accusing the leadership of corruption and power abuse.

“We have battled for this party. They ought to step down so the legitimate party can take over. What they do doesn’t matter to me. He cited the party’s recent electoral loss as proof of poor leadership and declared, “They are destroying the party.”

 

“Look at how we lost the election, abuse of power, corruption, arrogance, and they have destroyed the party…but now they are claiming that they have sacked me. To hell with them.”

He emphasised that the party’s interests must always take precedence above those of the government and individual authority, cautioning that if internal deterioration and indiscipline are allowed to continue, the NPP may become even weaker.

In response to Professor Frimpong-Boateng’s description of the NPP as a “fake party” and his declaration that he no longer saw himself as a member, the NPP has declared that it has started legal procedures to expel him from the party.

 

Additionally, he claimed that Dr Mahamudu Bawumia, the party’s presidential candidate for the 2024 general elections, benefited from manipulation in the party’s 2023 presidential primary.

The party called Prof. Frimpong-Boateng’s comments “highly reprehensible and inimical to the values, unity, and integrity of the party” in a statement dated January 13, 2026, and signed by General Secretary Justin Kodua Frimpong.

As a result, it has used the pertinent clauses in its constitution to start the procedures required to remove him from the party, strictly in compliance with due process.
