NPP Considering Yaw Buabeng Asamoah As New Communications Director

The New Patriotic Party (NPP) is considering appointing Mr Yaw Buabeng Asamoah as its substantive Communications Director.

This follows numerous concerns that the acting Director of Communications, Mr Yaw Adomako Baafi lacks the leadership qualities and acumen to lead the ruling party’s communication machinery.

The NPP is yet to announce the new development but in a Facebook post Wednesday morning, Mr Gabby Asare Otchere Darko hinted that Mr Yaw Buabeng Asamoah is the new Director of Communications.

“Congrats to Yaw Buabeng Asamoah for your appointment as the new Director of Communications for the New Patriotic Party. Clearly, there was a huge leadership vacuum in the ruling party’s communication machinery and we are all happy to hear that Chairman Blay, General John Boadu and the team have acted accordingly,” Mr Asare Otchere Darko wrote.

Mr Adomako Baafi was made to act as the Communications Director after Nana Akomea relinquished the position in 2017 to take a new appointment as the Managing Director of the state transport company, Intercity STC.

In a radio interview on Accra based Okay FM, Wednesday morning, the General Secretary of the NPP, Mr John Boadu confirmed there were some discussions ongoing but denied a firm decision has been taken as of now.
