We’ve Learned from Our Mistakes – NPP Appeals to Ghanaians for Forgiveness

The General Secretary of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), Justin Frimpong Kodua, has extended an apology to Ghanaians on behalf of the party, admitting to governance lapses during their time in office and assuring the public that such errors will not be repeated if given another chance.

In a frank admission of the party’s mixed performance, Kodua acknowledged that although the NPP worked hard while in government, there were areas where they fell short.

“As a political party, we did our best, but it’s true we didn’t get everything right,” he stated. “And on behalf of the previous administration and the NPP, we sincerely apologise for the things we failed to do properly.”

After losing the 2024 general elections following an eight-year rule, the party has been in a phase of self-evaluation and renewal.

Kodua stressed that the NPP is committed to learning from its past and improving. “We are open to learning and determined that when we return to power, we will build on our successes and avoid the missteps we made.”

His remarks come as the party prepares for significant internal reforms, including its presidential primaries scheduled for January 31, 2026, and a comprehensive constitutional review at the National Delegates Conference in July 2025. The NPP maintains that rebuilding internal structures is key to regaining the confidence of the electorate.
