The New Patriotic Party (NPP) has clarified that former Dome-Kwabenya Member of Parliament, Sarah Adwoa Safo, was officially notified about the postponement of her disciplinary hearing.
Speaking on The Pulse on JoyNews on Monday, April 7, the party’s Deputy General Secretary, Haruna Mohammed, said due process was followed in communicating the decision to Adwoa Safo.
“I can confirm that a letter was delivered to her regarding the postponement. I personally received her at the party headquarters today because we were holding a separate meeting on electoral matters related to the 2024 general elections. While there, I heard some noise outside and went to find out what was happening. It turned out she had come in response to the earlier invitation,” he explained.
Mr Mohammed said he met with Adwoa Safo on behalf of the General Secretary and reminded her of the letter. “Her aide had the letter. Her lawyer also received it and even confirmed it to the person who delivered it,” he noted.
Despite this, Adwoa Safo reportedly claimed she had not seen the letter, but the party maintains that both her aide and lawyer acknowledged receipt. “We even have electronic confirmation from the lawyer,” Mr Mohammed added.
He further explained that the party’s Disciplinary Committee, which is a standing committee of the National Council, independently issues such notices—not the General Secretary.
“It is not going to be a debate between us and Adwoa Safo because she is a senior member of the party, a former Member of Parliament, a former Minister.
“The key point is that the meeting was postponed, and she will be informed through the committee’s secretary, Patrick Boamah, when a new date is set,” he stated.
