Former Energy Minister and 2024 New Patriotic Party running mate, Dr Matthew Opoku Prempeh, has reiterated his confidence in the leadership qualities of former Vice President Dr Mahamudu Bawumia.

Dr Opoku Prempeh, popularly known as Napo, has been engaging members of the NPP ahead of the party’s January 31 primaries, with his latest tour taking him to the Bono Region.

He urged delegates to remain firmly behind Dr Bawumia, describing him as the “most prepared” candidate to lead the NPP.

“In my engagement with the regional and constituency executives in the Bono Region, I reinforced this call for unity and civility in our campaign conduct. I also stated my clear conviction that Dr Mahamudu Bawumia is the most prepared to lead our party into the future,” he wrote on his Facebook page.

He also highlighted his continued message of peace and unity among party members as he rallies support for the former Vice President.

“My message throughout this campaign period for a flagbearer has remained consistent. Regardless of our individual preferences or internal differences, we are one political tradition, strengthened only when we close ranks and rally behind the elephant and the leader of our party, the New Patriotic Party.”
