Frank Annojh-Dompreh and Dennis Miracles Aboagye, Majority Chief Whip and Presidential Staff, respectively, have all congratulated Vice President Dr Mahamudu Bawumia who they believe has won the presidential primaries of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) based on the provisional figures that have come in so far.
Annoh-Dompreh who is also lawmaker for Nsawam Adoagyiri tweeted “Congratulations, sir..”
Miracles Aboagye also tweeted “You did it Sir Congratulations @MBawumia.”
Another leading member of the NPP Gabby Otchere Darko also said that Dr Bawumia enjoys overwhelming support from the party.
In his view, he overwhelming support is a demonstration of the massive confidence people have in the government.
“When I got here, it was peaceful, and it is the president’s constituency, and they have voted overwhelmingly for the Vice President. They came out to vote massively for the Vice President, and it shows that they have confidence in the government,” Mr Otchere-Darko told journalists on Saturday November 4
“We have a lot of work to do to break the eight-year cycle, but it starts with massively endorsing the candidate so that we don’t encounter problems,” he added.
Meanwhile, a Political Scientist at the University of Ghana, Dr Kwame Asah-Asante has said no matter who wins the flagbearer elections of the NPP, the real deal is in the 2024 general elections against John Dramani Mahama of the National Democratic Congress (NDC).
