Our attitude caused NPP’s defeat in 2024 elections — Trobu MP
Share on FacebookShare on Twitter

The Member of Parliament (MP) for Trobu, Gloria Owusu, representing the New Patriotic Party (NPP), has accepted responsibility for the party’s unexpected defeat in the 2024 general elections—pointing to internal attitude, arrogance, and disconnection from the people as the root causes.

Speaking at a gathering of party faithful and constituents when Dr Mahamudu Bawumia visited the constituency as part of his campaign ahead of the NPP presidential primaries, the Trobu MP said that while many external factors contributed to the outcome, it was the attitude of some party leaders and grassroots members that proved most damaging.

She said “For us in Amasaman, Trobu, Anyaa Sowutuom and Dome Kwabenya, all that we are saying is we assure you of our unflinching support, and we will work very hard to get you elected as our flagbearer.”

She, however, dismissed claims that Dr Bawumia was to blame for the NPP’s defeat in the 2024 elections, insisting that the loss stemmed from internal neglect and disconnection within the party rather than from its flagbearer.

The MP added that “I believe strongly that our 2024 election loss was not caused by the candidate. Our attitude to our own supporters caused our defeat.”

The MP’s frank admission comes amid internal reflections within the NPP. The loss in December 2024 has provoked multiple evaluations of what went wrong, with senior figures and internal committees pointing to issues such as unpopular policies, such as the E-levy, debt exchange programmes, high cost of living, and communication breakdowns.

By focusing on attitude, the Trobu MP places moral and behavioural reform at the centre of the party’s renewal—arguing that changes in leadership style, listening culture, and respect for the electorate are essential if the NPP hopes to reclaim its footing.

The Trobu MP’s remark that attitude played a major role in the 2024 electoral defeat has added a new dimension to the NPP’s internal reckoning.

As the party looks to recover and build for future elections, notably 2028, the focus will likely be less on external blame and more on internal reform: humility, listening, and reconnecting with the electorate.
