Ghanaian Gospel artist Empress Gifty has shown support for her husband, Hopeson Adorye, who was recently expelled from the NPP party. Adorye, the Former NPP parliamentary candidate of Kpone Katamanso, was among several NPP members, including Nana Ohene Ntow, Boniface Abubakar Saddique, and Yaw Buabeng Asamoah, who faced expulsion. The party’s leadership, in a press release dated Monday, November 20, 2023, attributed their dismissal to publicly endorsing a presidential aspirant other than the party’s elected flagbearer, Dr Mahamudu Bawumia.
The statement, signed by General Secretary Justin Kodua Frimpong, cited this endorsement as a violation of the party’s constitution, specifically Articles 3(5) (A)(4) and 3(9)(1). The party clarified that the actions of the four dismissed members were inconsistent with the party’s principles, leading to the forfeiture of their membership.
Empress Gifty, in response to the news, shared a video consoling her husband and offering words of encouragement, urging him not to give up. Watch her heartfelt message below.
