He stated, "President Akufo-Addo, I will give you a showdown in this country, I swear to God. Vice President, I will give you a showdown for chasing my agent away. I swear to God. You will hear what will happen here. I swear to God, I will challenge President Akufo-Addo big time."

According to a statement issued by NPP's General Secretary, Justin Kodua Frimpong, on Sunday, certain individuals, including Raphael Patrick Sarfo, Charles Dokyi Yaw-Addo, Musa Sulemana, and Hopeson Yaovi Adorye, will be referred to the party's Disciplinary Committee based on evidence including videos and photographs that suggest possible violations of the party's constitution.
