The Member of Parliament (MP) for Mpraeso, Hon. Davies Ansah Opoku, has endorsed the New Patriotic Party’s (NPP) official dissociation from derogatory comments made by Bono Regional Chairman, Kwame Baffoe, also known as Abronye DC, against Archbishop Nicholas Duncan-Williams.

The MP described the party’s response as a necessary affirmation of its foundational principles of respect and tolerance.

In a firm statement issued following the party’s press release, Hon. Opoku commended General Secretary Justin Kodua Frimpong for what he called a “bold and principled stand” that he believed reflected the true character of the NPP.

The party had earlier distanced itself from Abronye’s allegations and emphasized that the remarks do not align with the party’s values or position.

According to Hon. Opoku, the NPP has always held the country’s religious leaders in high regard, recognizing their significant role in peace-building, moral direction, and national development.

“It is, therefore, deeply disappointing to witness personal attacks on a highly respected religious figure like Archbishop Duncan-Williams. Such comments are irresponsible and undermine the values upon which the NPP was built”

In the same statement, the MP called on all members of the NPP to return to the path of unity and constructive engagement, insisting that the identity of the party is at stake when such inflammatory remarks go unchecked.

NPP Officially Distances Itself

The New Patriotic Party, in an official release, made it clear that Abronye’s statements during a recent media appearance on Ohia TV were “unfortunate and unprovoked.” The party reiterated that such views were his personal opinions and should not be mistaken for the party’s stance.

“The party unequivocally distances itself from those comments. They do not reflect the party’s values, beliefs, or official position,” the statement from the National Secretariat read.

The release further reaffirmed the party’s appreciation of religious leaders’ contributions to national development and warned that freedom of speech within the NPP must be exercised with responsibility and decorum.

Kwame Baffoe, popularly known as Abronye DC, alleged that Archbishop Duncan-Williams began his ministry with proceeds from armed robbery and used charm and charisma to manipulate the public. He called the Archbishop a “fake pastor” and said he lacked moral authority to lead a religious congregation.

Abronye further accused the presiding Archbishop of squandering church funds and entering politics for personal gain. According to him, Duncan-Williams had failed to condemn homosexuality and instead influenced other pastors to remain silent on LGBTQ+ issues, an action Abronye linked to attempts to shield government interests.

He concluded by urging Ghanaians to reject Duncan-Williams’ spiritual authority, calling into question the legitimacy of his entire ministry.

Restoring Party Identity

For Hon. Davies Opoku, the MP for Mpraeso, such remarks not only undermine Archbishop Duncan-Williams but also damage the moral fabric of the New Patriotic Party.

“I call on all members of our party to remember who we are and what we stand for. A democratic tradition that values decorum, respects faith leaders, and cherishes the contributions of every Ghanaian to our national development”

He added that a return to respectful political discourse would help restore the party’s public integrity and reinforce its commitment to building an inclusive society anchored in mutual respect.

The party’s leadership also appealed to the Christian community to disregard Abronye’s commentary and recognize it as an individual outburst rather than an institutional position. By doing so, the NPP hopes to reaffirm its cordial relationship with the religious community, which it described as crucial to Ghana’s forward march.

The official statement concluded by reiterating the NPP’s readiness to work in partnership with religious institutions for national development and peace.

The incident comes at a time when the NPP is under pressure to maintain unity and preserve its image heading into future electoral contests. With internal factions often expressing divergent views, party leadership has been forced to clamp down on statements that could deepen divisions or tarnish its reputation.

Hon. Opoku’s intervention signals a growing awareness within the party that unchecked rhetoric can have lasting consequences, not only on inter-institutional relations but also on voter confidence and national cohesion.
