In a surprising turn of events, Mr Andrew Atariwini has resigned as the Deputy Upper East Regional Communication Director of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), with immediate effect.

In his resignation letter, addressed to the Regional Communication Director, Mr Atariwini described his decision as one made with a clear conscience, marking the end of a tenure he served with dedication and commitment.

Despite stepping down, he reaffirmed his unwavering support for the party’s ideology and vision, stating: “My ethos in this regard remains solid and sound for the support of the ideology and corporate vision of the NPP.”

He expressed deep gratitude to the Regional Communication Director for entrusting him with the role and thanked the regional executives for their support throughout his tenure.

He also acknowledged his colleagues in the communication team for their camaraderie and encouragement.

“To all my colleagues in the communication team, your warmth, love, and support will forever be with me; God bless you all,” he wrote.

His resignation comes at a critical time for the NPP, as the party works to reorganize following its defeat in the 2024 general elections.

With communication playing a pivotal role in party mobilization and public engagement, his departure raises questions about the leadership dynamics within the regional communication team.

While Mr. Atariwini did not explicitly state his reasons for resigning, his reaffirmation of loyalty to the party suggests that his departure is not a break from the NPP, but rather a strategic personal decision.

As the NPP navigates this transition, attention will be on how the party fills the leadership vacuum and sustains its communication efforts in the region.

The Regional Communication Directorate has yet to issue a formal statement on his resignation.

However, Mr. Atariwini’s legacy of dedication and service will undoubtedly leave a lasting impact on the party’s regional communication front
