Mr Michael Agyeman Kweku Afful, the Assin North Constituency Secretary of the ruling New Patriotic Party (NPP) has resigned.
This was contained in a resignation letter copied to the Regional Chairman, Constituency Executives, Electoral Area Co-ordinators and Polling Station Executives of the party and sighted by the Ghana News Agency.
Mr Afful ascribed the reason for his resignation to the singular need to maintain peace and harmony to make the party more attractive instead of engaging in acts that would muddy the reputation and negatively affect the electoral fortunes of the party.
He said "it has become necessary for me to embark on the fore-going decision to enable some elements within the Constituency Executive Committee to have their way."
He, however, assured that regardless of his resignation, he remained a staunch member of the party and would continue to offer his unalloyed support and unrivalled loyalty.
Again, he said he would work assiduously with the rank and file of the party to galvanise more grassroots support to sway more floating voters to ensure the party's landslide electoral victory in the 2020 polls.
"Much as I have resigned from my post, I will continue to remain a loyal and active member of our political fraternity with rejuvenated and sustained zeal to champion the party's cause as we work hard, pray and hope for yet another victory in 2020 polls."
Mr Afful called for unity and harmony among the party faithful to maintain party cohesion and accelerate development to improve the wellbeing of the people.
He further thanked the party especially the grassroots for their unflinching support for him saying "I thank you all for the solid internal group cohesion, the unequal rapport and the brotherliness that existed with us from opposition to government."

Nea ey3 no s3 ogyina hc no,onhw3 yiye na w'anhwe ase. There seems to be disaffection, discontent and disillusion among the ranks. These are the signs that lead to 'voter apathy',which eventually brings ruling parties down. Grassroots neglect,voters aspirations neglect,promises of MPs and Party leaders that are overlooked. JUST GO and check NSAKINA ROAD;ODORKOR SMELLY DRAINS;UPPER WEIJA ROADS;and numerous impassable roads in and around NPP STRONGHOLDS. Then you dont need to be 'Prophet ONE'to predict the future. Dont give arsenal to those who always think and say that NPP as a party does not reward its own. PLEASE Uncle J.B, SAMMY AWUKU, KATE GYAMFUAH' NANA B, wake up ooooh. DO SOMETHING QUICKLY, lest you lose the 'HEN' that lays your 'GOLDEN EGGS'
HMMMMMM, this is getting serious
npp be careful.
Is that constituency where Ken Agypong is? I smell some ambition for MP position in him!
From abronye, to otiko, to agyarko fired, to board chairman, to deputy eastern regional minister to Kennedy agyepong's selling tomato or onion comment, NANA ADDO should be worried. And now this assin secretary. If a party is in power and its members are increasingly resigning and boldly speaking against the party then there is something fundamentally wrong. Npp could potentially lose the 2020 elections miserably because a lot its its members are really angry becuase of neglect. Asante bediatuo and ofori did not play any significant role in bringing the party to power, yet because they are cousins to nana addo they are executive secretary and finance minister respectively while people who were in serious campaigning for the party are being fired, and you expect them to be sitting down? Monkeys dey work and baboons dey chop. Even Gabby is now living like the prime minister.
