Speaking on Radio Ghana's Behind thr News programme on Monday, General Secretary of the CPP, Nii Armah Akomfrah said: "It is going to be very difficult for Hassan Ayariga, the same way it is going to be difficult for Dr. Sakara pursue an independent agenda."
According to Mr. Akomfrah, people have the right to leave or join any political party of their choice since Ghana is a free country.
Although he admitted that politics is about numbers and would rather want these aggrieved members to remain within the party, the CPP will not be perturbed by such moves.
Unity talks
Commenting on plans by smaller parties within the country to join forces to form a united front, the CPP General Secretary said his that move is not priority for his outfit at the moment.
He remarked that the CPP will not subject itself to"endless discussions" since the CPP has established itself as the "clear alternative platform to the NDC and the NPP."
