Vice President Dr Mahamudu Bawumia’s campaign team is highly optimistic about his chances in the party’s flagbearer contest.
They believe that Dr Bawumia will secure victory with over 75% of the total valid votes cast.
A member of the Vice President’s communications team, Ellen Ama Daaku, expressed this confidence.
In an interview on Saturday on News File, she emphasized that Dr. Bawumia’s loyalty and dedication will be key factors in securing a resounding win.
“Our confidence is coming from the fact that we have visited all 276 constituencies with Dr Bawumia and he has interacted with almost all the over 200,000 delegates. From the conversations we have had with them, we will be surprised if he gets anything below 75%, and our confidence also stems from the fact that Dr Bawumia has been successful within the space of the NPP and has sacrificed a lot of for the party.”
The NPP is voting to elect its flagbearer for the 2024 general elections.
This critical poll involves over 200,000 party delegates and is seen as a pivotal step in the attempt by the party to break the eight-year election cycle pattern in Ghana.
The delegates, who make up the Electoral College comprise Members of Parliament, Metropolitan, Municipal and District Chief Executives, Ministers and their deputies, founding members of the NPP, members of the party’s National Council and patrons and Council of Elders.
The rest are regional party officers, constituency officers, constituency patrons, constituency elders, electoral area coordinators, polling station executives, overseas branches and members of Tescon, the tertiary students’ wing of the party.
The four contenders in the race are Vice President Dr Mahamudu Bawumia, Assin Central MP, Kennedy Ohene Agyapong, former Food and Agric Minister, Dr Owusu Akoto Afriyie, and former MP, Francis Addai-Nimoh.
