A former Director of Finance and Administration of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), Kwadwo Opare Hammond is threatening legal action against the party if he is not reinstated immediately.<\/p>\n

Mr. Opare Hammond was asked to proceed on leave for\u00a0alleged financial impropriety and disobedience to the National Chairman, Paul Afoko.<\/p>\n

He has since denied the allegation.

The Constitutional Committee of the Party, issued a report on Tuesday recommending that the leadership of the party reinstate<\/strong><\/span> <\/b><\/a>Mr. Opare Hammond and Perry Okudzeto.<\/p>\n

[contextly_sidebar id=”69zk0dzJSMvaI8XogHLtpoTxGlGhFGG6″]But a press statement issued by the General Secretary of the party, Kwabena Agyepong, on Thursday, urged party members and the public to disregard the report<\/strong>.<\/span><\/a><\/span><\/p>\n

Speaking to Citi News<\/strong> however, Mr. Opare Hammond said he will be compelled to go to court if the matter is not resolved.<\/p>\n

\u201cI am only trying to use the channel that is available to me in the party\u2019s constitution. I don\u2019t want to go beyond that and then very soon I will drag the party and the people involved to court, please.\u201d<\/p>\n

Opare Hammond has also appealed\u00a0to the party\u2019s National Council of Elders to immediately resolve the various conflicts and issues raging in the party.<\/p>\n
