The New Patriotic Party (NPP) Chairman for Asutifi North in the Ahafo Region, William Osei, has declared former Vice President Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia as the most suitable candidate to lead the party into the 2028 general elections.

Speaking at Kenyasi during Dr. Bawumia’s engagement with delegates ahead of the party’s January 31 flagbearer election, Mr. Osei told Adom News that Dr. Bawumia possesses the right vision and leadership qualities to unite the NPP and adequately prepare its members for victory in 2028.

He emphasised that Dr. Bawumia’s message of unity and his practical approach to rebuilding the party after the 2024 elections make him the ideal person to lead the NPP into the next contest.

Meanwhile, Afia Kwartemaa, the Polling Station Women’s Organiser for the Zongo Electoral Area in Kenyasi No. 2, praised Dr. Bawumia’s calm and respectful tone throughout his address.

She said his refusal to insult or blame others reflects the leadership maturity the NPP needs at this stage.

According to her, Dr. Bawumia’s call for collective responsibility and teamwork after the party’s 2024 defeat has inspired renewed hope among grassroots members to work together for a comeback in 2028.
