Attorney-General and Minister for Justice, Godfred Yeboah Dame, has expressed optimism about the Vice President, Dr Mahamudu Bawumia leading the New Patriotic Party (NPP) in the 2024 election.
The AG believes that Dr Bawumia's experience and intelligence make him a strong contender to lead the party in its bid to retain power.
He commended the Vice President for his leadership qualities demonstrated throughout his campaign, noting that Dr Bawumia has conducted himself admirably in the political arena.
Mr Dame encouraged party members to rally behind Dr Bawumia in the ongoing elections across all 276 constituencies.
“Bawumia has the integrity, he has the intellect, he has the experience, and he has the vision to lead the NPP to victory in 2024 and to break the eight. He is the only candidate who can do it," he said.
The NPP is voting to elect its flagbearer for the 2024 general elections.
This critical poll involves over 200,000 party delegates and is seen as a pivotal step in breaking the eight-year election cycle pattern in Ghana.
The delegates, who make up the Electoral College comprise Members of Parliament, Metropolitan, Municipal and District Chief Executives, ministers and their deputies, foundation members of the NPP, members of the party’s National Council and patrons and council of elders.
The rest are regional party officers, constituency officers, constituency patrons, constituency elders, electoral area coordinators, polling station executives, overseas branches and members of Tescon, the tertiary students’ wing of the party.
The four contenders in the race are Vice President Dr Mahamudu Bawumia, Assin Central MP, Kennedy Ohene Agyapong, former Food and Agric Minister, Dr Owusu Akoto Afriyie, and former MP, Francis Addai-Nimoh.
