The NPP’s recent parliamentary primaries brought unexpected changes in the Ashanti Region as prominent lawmakers, including the deputy minister of communications, Ama Pomaa Boateng, Subin MP, Eugene Boakye Antwi and Atwima Mponua’s Isaac Asiamah, failed to secure candidacy for the 2024 general elections.
The loss of Collins Augustine Ntim in the Offinso North further added to the wave of changes, leaving political observers contemplating the party’s internal dynamics.
The aftermath of the primaries sparked discussions about the evolving dynamics within the NPP and the factors that contributed to the defeats of these well-established politicians. Some attributed it to shifts in public opinion, while others pointed to internal party dynamics and changing priorities among voters.
As the dust settled, attention turned to the emerging candidates who would carry the party’s banner in the upcoming general elections.
The results of the parliamentary primaries served as a reminder of the unpredictable nature of politics, leaving both winners and losers to navigate the next chapter of their political careers.
Find below the full list of the eight fallen lawmakers:
Ama Pomaa Boateng – Juaben
Eugene Boakye Antwi – Subin
