A communication team member of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), Eric Twum, has dismissed claims of internal disunity within the party, asserting that the ongoing Thank You Tour led by Dr Mahamudu Bawumia is not causing division as some have suggested.
His comments come in response to concerns raised by party stalwart Boakye Kyerematen Agyarko, who on April 28 warned that the tour had veered off its intended purpose of rekindling grassroots support and was instead fueling internal tensions and blame games.
Agyarko described the situation as troubling, urging the party leadership to realign the tour with its original objectives of unity and reconciliation.
Speaking on Channel One TV’s Breakfast Daily on Tuesday, April 29, 2025, Eric Twum refuted these assertions, suggesting that those claiming disunity may themselves be contributing to it.
“There is no disunity. The people who want to see the disunity are probably the ones who are orchestrating it. I don’t see the disunity and I will not sit here to make matters worse.
“Those who are shouting, are people that I have personal problems with because most of the things they are doing are not based on principles.
“Some are now calling for amnesty to be extended to certain persons, and some of the people who are now writing letters and things are the architects behind the suspension of some of these people. If today, all of a sudden they have found their voices, all because Bawumia is going on a Thank You Tour, everyone is now overly excited saying something untoward is happening, there is nothing untoward happening anywhere,” he stated.
