The Deputy Majority Leader, Alexander Kwamena Afenyo-Markin, has heaped glowing tributes on the Vice President of the Republic, Dr Mahamudu Bawumia.
In a statement made on the floor of Parliament on Friday, November 12, the Effutu Member of Parliament said; "Vice President Mahamudu Bawumia is another calm character, easy of address, a determined soul, ready to serve his country”.
Mr Alexander Afenyo-Markin made the remarks ahead of the commemoration of the nine years of passing into glory of the late Vice President, Aliu Mahama, who died on November 16, 2012, in Accra.
The Deputy Majority Leader likened Dr. Bawumia’s calmness and other traits to those of Aliu Mahama of blessed memory.
He also emphasized that just like the late Vice President, Dr. Bawumia is an emblem of unity and that religious groups are at peace with one another and will continue to be under him.
This endorsement of Vice President Mahamudu Bawumia by Mr Alexander Kwamena Afenyo-Markin goes to give credence to the fact that most of the party’s supporters, including its leadership, believe that the New Patriotic Party will break the eight if he (Bawumia) is elected as the party’s presidential candidate ahead of the 2024 elections.
