Former Deputy Director of Communications under the Akufo Addo administration, Jefferson Sackey, has mounted a vigorous campaign in support of former Vice President and NPP Flagbearer aspirant, Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, describing him as a leader of principle, discipline and unmatched political pedigree within the New Patriotic Party.
Mr. Sackey, who was the New Patriotic Party Parliamentary Candidate for Ablekuma Central in the 2024 general elections and currently serves as an special aide to Dr. Bawumia, made the remarks while addressing NPP Delegates in Ablekuma Central aimed at mobilising grassroots backing for the Vice President.
According to him, Dr. Bawumia’s political journey and personal character clearly set him apart as the most prepared and credible figure to lead the country.
He stressed that the former Vice President’s consistency, loyalty to the party and calm leadership style have been evident throughout his years of public service.
“This is a man of principle. This is a man of discipline,” Mr. Sackey told the delegates. He traced the electoral history of the New Patriotic Party, recalling the party’s resilience through challenging election cycles and its firm belief in the rule of law, particularly its decision to seek redress at the Supreme Court following the 2012 elections.
Mr. Sackey highlighted Dr. Bawumia’s instrumental role in the party’s eventual victory in 2016, which brought Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo Addo to the presidency, with Dr. Bawumia as Vice President.
He described this achievement as a defining moment in the history of the Fourth Republic and a testament to Dr. Bawumia’s strategic thinking and commitment to democratic governance.
“In the history of our republic, you are a Vice President of the Republic of Ghana who has remained consistent, focused and loyal to party ideals,” he said, adding that no political opponent has been able to diminish Dr. Bawumia’s credibility or national appeal.
The former deputy director of communications also emphasised Dr. Bawumia’s broad national support, noting that his message resonates across regions and ethnic lines.
He said the former Vice President’s ideas and leadership style appeal to Ghanaians from the north to the south and from the east to the west, reinforcing his image as a unifying figure.
Mr. Sackey assured supporters that the New Patriotic Party would once again reward Dr. Bawumia’s dedication and sacrifice with overwhelming backing, expressing confidence in a victorious outcome when party processes and national elections are concluded.
He called for humility, unity and renewed commitment among party members, urging them to rally behind Dr. Bawumia out of conviction and love for the party and the country. “We believe in you, and we will stand with you,” he further said.
