Former Member of Parliament for Dome-Kwabenya, Sarah Adwoa Safo, has suspended her planned radio tour in the Ashanti Region following a meeting with respected members of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) in Kumasi.

The intervention by party elders comes amid concerns that her public outbursts could escalate tensions within the opposition party, which is already struggling to recover from its 2024 electoral defeat to the National Democratic Congress (NDC).

Last week, the former Minister of State began a media tour in Accra, where she addressed several corruption allegations that happen in her minister which investigative report were swept under carpet by President Nana Akufo Addo during her tenure in government.

She also accused faceless individuals in the presidency of deliberately collapsing her father’s transport business and labeling her as a disloyal party member.

Adwoa Safo claims that these accusations were linked to her absence from Parliament during key votes, including the election of Speaker Kingsford Sumana Bagbin and the passage of the E-Levy at a time when her son was seriously ill in the United States.

She further alleged that former Speaker of Parliament, Prof. Mike Oquaye, and his family played a role in her political downfall, which led to her defeat in the NPP parliamentary primaries.

Fearing that her revelations could deepen divisions within the party, some respected NPP members reportedly visited her home in Kumasi and urged her to halt her Ashanti Region media engagements.

Adwoa Safo had been using the radio tour to clear her name and expose internal sabotage, but party insiders worry that her continued public criticism could weaken efforts to unify the NPP ahead of the next elections.

It remains unclear whether she will resume the tour at a later date or if further internal discussions will be held to address her grievances.
