In a live stream shared on Instagram on May 12, 2026, a defiant Taylor addressed rumours regarding his affiliation with the NPP, which is currently the current major opposition party.
Kevin Taylor threatens to sue NPP
Taylor, known for his relentless criticism of the Ghanaian political establishment, dared the NPP General Secretary and the National Executive Committee (NEC) to officially announce his expulsion on television.
"If you are a man like me, come on television to say I am sacked from the party. Nobody in the party can open their mouth to say that," he lamented.
He further claimed that he has consistently paid his dues and supported the party's sustainability. Taylor warned that any attempt to strike his name from the rolls would result in a lawsuit:
"I will let my lawyers write to you people... I will sue the party and turn them bankrupt".
The tension follows an official press release from the NPP on May 8, 2026, which described Taylor’s recent comments about former President John Agyekum Kufuor as a "desecration".
Taylor had reportedly referred to the 87-year-old statesman as "lazy" and suggested he should "stand up and walk"—remarks the NPP deemed unacceptable for a national icon. The party had called on the ruling National Democratic Congress (NDC) to "rein in" Taylor, alleging he had deep ties to the government.
However, Taylor maintained that he remains an NPP member and urged the leadership to "shut up and feel the change".
