A leading member of Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia’s campaign team and Member of Parliament for Tano North, Dr. Gideon Boako, has praised the level of support shown by delegates and party members in the Bono East Region, describing it as a clear sign of confidence in the former Vice President’s leadership.
Dr. Boako, speaking on the Channel One Newsroom on Saturday, October 18, said the overwhelming reception and endorsement the NPP flagbearer hopeful received suggests a strong consensus has already been built among party supporters in the area.
“There is no doubt that there seems to be some kind of consensus built as to who they have decided to give their votes to this time also to lead the party and it is quite refreshing that you start your campaign and in the first region you go to they give you such overwhelming endorsement and give you that kind of positive energy,” Dr. Boako stated.
According to him, the feedback from delegates shows that the support Dr. Bawumia enjoyed in the region during the 2023 NPP presidential primaries is not only intact but even stronger ahead of the upcoming internal elections.
“So if you want to summarise the tour of the Bono East region I can tell you that it is nothing but an optimism the people have shown that in 2023 they went for Dr Mahamudu Bawumia and this time around they are determined to go ago,” he added.
Dr. Bawumia wrapped up his Bono East tour with engagements in all 11 constituencies, ending in Techiman North and South. During his meetings, he assured delegates of his commitment to bringing transformative, world-class development to Ghana if elected President.
He cited major achievements during his tenure as Vice President, including the Ghana Card, mobile money interoperability, and the Zipline medical drone service, as proof of his readiness to lead.
Dr. Bawumia’s visit to the Bono East Region is part of his broader “Our Journey Together” campaign, which seeks to engage New Patriotic Party delegates and grassroots supporters ahead of the party’s presidential primaries.
