‘You Should Have Known Better’ – Nana B Blasts NPP MP, Ntim’s Family Over Public Disclosure of His Health
In a heated response that has stirred political circles, Nana Boakye, popularly known as Nana B, has strongly criticized the public disclosure of the health status of a New Patriotic Party (NPP) Member of Parliament. The National Organiser of the NPP expressed disappointment over the way details about the MP’s health, Hon. Ntim, were shared publicly by his family. According to Nana B, such sensitive information should have been handled with care and confidentiality.
Speaking to a local media outlet, Nana B said,
“You should have known better. Matters of health, especially concerning a sitting Member of Parliament, should not be made public without proper caution. It does more harm than good.”
The situation unfolded earlier this week when family members of Hon. Ntim released a statement confirming that the MP was battling a serious health condition. While their intention may have been to clarify rumors, the announcement quickly spread across social media, sparking widespread discussions and concerns.
Nana B, clearly unhappy with the decision, stressed that the family should have consulted the party’s leadership before making such a move. He noted that public disclosures of this nature could be politically damaging and may affect the morale of the MP’s constituents and supporters.
“When a public figure is unwell, it is not unusual for people to ask questions. But that does not mean families or close friends should rush to the public with every detail. We have seen how such disclosures in the past have led to unnecessary panic and political confusion,”
Nana B emphasized.
The NPP National Organiser further explained that political opponents could exploit such information for propaganda purposes. He added that party unity and discretion are critical, especially in a time when Ghana is preparing for another general election.
This incident has since generated a heated debate on social media, with many questioning whether the public had the right to know about the MP’s condition. While some netizens praised the family for being transparent, others supported Nana B’s stance, saying that privacy and respect should have been prioritized.
Nana B urged Ghanaians to be more sensitive when dealing with health-related matters, especially those involving public figures. “We must learn to protect each other, especially in politics. It’s not everything that needs to be shared. Hon. Ntim needs our prayers, not public scrutiny,” he said.
The health of politicians is often a delicate topic in Ghana, and this latest development only adds to the ongoing conversation about how such issues should be handled.
As the New Patriotic Party continues its internal preparations for the upcoming elections, leaders like Nana B are calling for greater unity and responsibility within the party. He reiterated that the NPP remains focused on delivering good governance and urged members to be mindful of their actions, especially those that could impact the party’s image.
This story remains one of the top political news trends in Ghana, and it is a clear reminder of the need for discretion, unity, and respect in both political and personal matters.
