Friends of Bawumia (FOB), a youth group in the Chiana-Paga constituency of the Upper East Region, has threatened that its members will leave the NPP if Vice President, Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, is not made the flagbearer of the party come 2024 elections.
The group, which has a registered membership of 600, believes that the Vice President is the only candidate who can help the party achieve its ‘break the 8-year’ slogan.
Speaking to our reporter, the chairman of the group, Desmond Abire Ayambire, noted that some of the members were constituency executives and had done extensive work to realise that Dr. Bawumia was the only person who could help the party win the coming 2024 elections.
“We are not saying that the other candidates can’t represent the party, but Dr. Bawumia is best positioned to lead us to the promised land. Most of us are executives, and we are not sitting while saying this, we have done our homework and realised that he is the best for the party.”
Mr. Ayambire, who is also the constituency chairman, added that “…yes, it is not a secret because if the party fails or whatever and Dr. Bawumia is not made flagbearer, some of us will leave the party. We have a registered membership of 600 and counting; we will be the first people to leave NPP. So, we expect that the party should kindly let Dr. Bawumia lead us to victory come the 2024 presidential elections.”
The group therefore called on the public, especially youth in the constituency, to join its course for the betterment of the party.
