In a petition dated 21 June 2026 and signed by the group's spokesperson, Akosua Achiaa Pokuaa, popularly known as "Ghana Jollof", and addressed to the party's General Secretary, the group accused Mr Agyapong of making public remarks that undermine the NPP and its previous governments.

The petition cites comments allegedly made by Mr Agyapong during an interview on Net 2 TV on 18 June 2026, where he reportedly threatened to disclose sensitive information about the party if provoked.

According to the group, the remarks violate Article 3 of the NPP Constitution, which requires members to "be truthful and loyal to the party" and to "protect and promote the good name of the party".

"We express our disappointment over his public outbursts as they are highly unfortunate, especially when he, as a person, has been a huge beneficiary of the very party that he seeks to humiliate, undermine and destroy," the petition stated.

The group further argued that Mr Agyapong's comments could harm the party's electoral prospects by undermining the achievements of previous NPP administrations.

"Mr Kennedy Agyapong's remarks are very much regrettable, to say the least, and we therefore call on the leadership of the party to expel him outright as it is obvious he is on a mission to undermine and destroy," the petition added.

The petitioners maintained that the NPP has survived the departure, suspension and defection of several prominent figures in the past and would remain strong even if Mr Agyapong were expelled.

They cited examples including Paul Afoko, Sammy Crabbe, Kwabena Agyepong and Alan Kyerematen, arguing that their departures did not prevent the party from remaining politically relevant.

As of the time of filing this report, neither Mr Agyapong nor the leadership of the NPP had publicly responded to the petition.
