He has since communicated his decision to the hierarchy of the party.

“To all my supporters and sympathisers, I want to thank you for your support. To the grassroots of our party who wished me well, thank you for your encouragement.



“And to all the members of my team, I thank you for your dedication. To all and sundry, I apologise for any inconvenience my decision has caused you,” the statement added,

The contest is now a straight fight between the acting chairman Freddie Blay and Stephen Ntim.

The ruling NPP will be electing its national executives in July.
