The incumbent General Secretary of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) Mr. John Boadu has lost his seat in the just-ended National Annual Delegates’ Conference of his party.

He was defeated by the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of the Youth Employment Agency (YEA), Justin Kodua Frimpong (JFK).

The Election results showed the young lawyer, JFK as he is affectionately known, polled 2,837 of the total valid votes cast to beat the incumbent John Boadu, who polled 2,524 votes.

Mr. Kodua Frimpong was greeted with cheers at the Accra Sports Stadium as he made his way around the inner perimeter after the outcome of the votes got to his supporters.

Iddrisu Musah, popularly known as Musah Superior, placed a distant third with 104 votes.

Former Suhum Member of Parliament (MP) Frederick Opare-Ansah polled 50 votes while Charles Cromwell Nanabanyin Onuawonto Bissue, despite his withdrawal from the contest a couple of days ago, polled 12 votes.

Mr. Kodua Frimpong joins a tall list of party stalwarts who have served in the General Secretary position.

Among these are current Minister of Local Government, Decentralisation and Rural Development Dan Kweku Botwe, Nana Ohene Ntow, Kwabena Agyei Agyepong, and most recently John Boadu.
