Former General Secretary of the governing New Patriotic Party (NPP), Mr Kwabena Agyapong, has been reinstated into the party following his years of suspension along with then-Chairman Paul Afoko and second vice-chair Sammy Crabbe for acting unilaterally without authorisation from the National Executive Committee.

The three men were suspended in the lead-up to the 2016 general elections.

However, the NEC, after a meeting, pardoned Mr Agyapong and welcomed him back into the fold of the party.

Mr Agyapong consequently becomes a member of NEC, Steering Committee, and the National Council.

Mr Agyapong toured the country with President Nana Akufo-Addo in the lead-up to the 2020 general elections.
