I’ll never discuss NPP strategies with my twin brother – Abanga

Abanga Fusaini Yakubu, the recent National Youth Organiser of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), has categorically denied any possibility of defecting to the National Democratic Congress (NDC) or sharing the party's strategies with his twin brother, Hassan Abanga, who serves as an NDC Vice Chairman. The candidate clarified that family political differences have never diminished his commitment to the NPP.

His mother is a supporter of the NPP, while his father and twin brother are affiliated with the NDC. During an interview on Channel One TV, Abanga emphasized that his family had agreed to respect each other's political choices and refrain from discussing politics during family gatherings to maintain harmony. He firmly stated that it is inconceivable for someone to expose his political strategies and ideas to the NDC, given his unwavering loyalty to the NPP.

Abanga highlighted his dedication to the party since 2014, stating that he has wholeheartedly served the NPP. When asked about the potential influence of his close relationship with his twin brother on his political allegiance, he rejected the notion entirely. Abanga expressed his strong belief in the NPP brand and his determination to contribute to its growth, stating that the party's brand is not small but rather a significant one.

He secured the position of National Youth Organiser at the NPP's national executive elections held at the Baba Yara Sports Stadium in Kumasi on October 3, 2026, with a vote tally of 1,550, outperforming five other candidates.
