Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia has indicated that he would give former President John Mahama, the Presidential Candidate for the National Democratic Congress (NDC), a political headache if he is elected as the presidential candidate for the New Patriotic Party (NPP) in the upcoming presidential primaries scheduled for Saturday, November 4.
Dr. Bawumia, who is seen as a leading contender in the NPP’s primaries, did not mince words as he confidently asserted that he is the only candidate the NDC fears in Ghana’s political landscape.
“The NDC knows that the 5 regions of the North are its strong centre and if I’m elected, it will not only be pressure for them but also a headache that John Mahama will run for his money and the NDC as a whole.”
“After November 4, if I’m elected, it is going to be president to president, and that is where John Mahama and the NDC will know their level. I will give them a showdown, more pressure, more headache, and more run for their resources,” he added.
The Vice President’s speech at the mini-rally was met with enthusiastic applause and cheering from the gathered supporters, setting the stage for an intense political battle in the upcoming primaries.
Dr. Bawumia, known for his eloquence and economic acumen, made a compelling case for his candidacy during the rally.
He highlighted his significant contributions to the NPP government, particularly in the areas of economic policy and social intervention programs.
The Vice President also underscored the importance of unity within the NPP, urging party members to set aside their differences and work together to ensure victory in the 2024 general elections.
He warned that a divided party would play into the hands of the NDC and John Mahama.
Dr. Bawumia’s bold claim that he is the candidate that the NDC fears in Ghanaian politics reflects his confidence in his abilities and his belief in the NPP’s chances in the upcoming elections.
The NPP’s internal race for the presidential candidate is gaining momentum, with various aspirants seeking the party’s nod to lead the charge in the 2024 elections.
The party will hold the primaries on November 4 to determine its flagbearer.
