In a jaw-dropping revelation, Dr. Mathew Opoku Prempeh, the 2024 running mate to Vice President Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, has added fuel to the fire surrounding the controversial ‘Agyapade3 Book.’ NAPO, as he is affectionately known, has unveiled President Akufo-Addo’s long-hidden succession plan, dating back to 2011, long before he ascended to the highest office in the land.
Speaking at the NPP’s 2024 Manifesto launch in Takoradi’s GSTS Auditorium, the Manhyia-groomed politician shocked the party faithful with an insider account that has tongues wagging. According to Dr. Prempeh, the outgoing President’s masterplan for the New Patriotic Party (NPP) was set in motion six years before he took over the reins of government, and it was all laid out in a late-night meeting in the Upper East Regional capital, Bolgatanga.
Recounting the surreal experience, Dr. Prempeh revealed, ‘At about 2:00 am, I was woken up by the security guards of Nana Akufo-Addo way back in Bolga. He was in the canteen of that famous Hotel when I went to see him. We sat down, obviously woken from sleep. And he said some profound things to me that evening.’

And what did the President say that was so earth-shattering? According to NAPO, Akufo-Addo was blunt about his ambitions for the party’s future. “He said, ‘NAPO, Matthew Prempeh, this party, you are the next generation. I am going to give you some advice, and I hope you can stick to it.’

The advice was as strategic as it was bold. ‘His all aim is when we get into government, we succeed ourselves. And that he can only leave the party to one of three people. He proceeded to mention who he felt comfortable leaving the party to as Matthew Prempeh, and Dr. Bawumia,” NAPO disclosed.
As the election looms, this revelation adds another layer of intrigue to the ongoing political drama. It not only gives credence to the contents of the controversial ‘Agyapade3 Book’ but also raises questions about the behind-the-scenes maneuvering within the NPP.
With this explosive disclosure, the NPP’s inner workings have been laid bare, leaving Ghanaians to ponder what other secrets might be hidden in the corridors of power. Dr. Prempeh’s account of that fateful night in Bolga is sure to stir up debate as the nation heads to the polls, and the future of the NPP hangs in the balance.
One thing is for sure—this is only the beginning. The political landscape is heating up, and NAPO has just thrown more fuel on the fire.
