NPP General Secretary aspirant Sylvester Tetteh advocates propaganda over facts for opposition strategy
Sylvester Tetteh, an aspiring General Secretary for the New Patriotic Party NPP, has suggested that the party should prioritize propaganda over facts while in opposition. In a video shared on X on August 11, 2026, Tetteh claimed that the ruling government is intimidating NPP members, including communicators and social media activists. He argued that in such an environment, the NPP needs an aggressive communication style to counter the ruling party's tactics. Tetteh, who previously served as Chief Executive Officer of the National Youth Authority and is a former Member of Parliament for Bortianor-Ngleshie Amanfro, made these remarks while discussing the role of a General Secretary during the party's time in opposition. He is campaigning for the NPP鈥檚 General Secretary position ahead of the party鈥檚 national executive elections, emphasizing the need for strong leadership to mobilize grassroots support and project a forceful message for the 2028 general elections. His comments have generated online reactions, with some X users labeling them as unpatriotic.
