National Coordinator of the District Road Improvement Programme (DRIP), Hon. Edwin Nii Lantey Vanderpuye, has officially announced his resignation from the position, citing a new ambition to pursue a National Executive role within the National Democratic Congress (NDC).
In a statement issued on his behalf, the former Coordinator described his decision as one taken “after careful reflection,” adding that it was necessary to enable him to focus on his next phase of political service within the party.
“It has been a great honour and privilege to serve His Excellency President John Dramani Mahama and the people of Ghana in this role,” the statement noted. “I am deeply grateful for the confidence reposed in me and for the opportunity to contribute to a programme that is transforming local infrastructure and improving lives across our communities.”
His resignation, he explained, is driven by his intention to contest or pursue a leadership position at the national executive level of the NDC, stressing his continued commitment to the party’s growth and democratic ideals.
“My resignation is to enable me pursue a National Executive position within our great party, the National Democratic Congress (NDC). This decision is driven by my desire to continue serving our party and country in a different capacity,” he said.
Hon. Vanderpuye further reaffirmed his loyalty to the vision of the government and to the leadership of the party, pledging continued support for national development efforts. He expressed optimism about the future of DRIP and confidence in its ongoing impact on local infrastructure delivery.
“I remain fully committed to the vision of President Mahama, the success of his administration, and the ideals of the NDC. I leave office with immense gratitude, proud of the work we have accomplished together and optimistic about the future of DRIP,” the statement added.
He concluded with a message of national goodwill, invoking divine blessing for Ghana and unity in public service.
“May God continue to bless Ghana and guide us all in our collective service to the nation.”
