Former Sekondi MP, Andrew Egyapa Mercer, has predicted a decisive victory for Dr Mahamudu Bawumia in the New Patriotic Party’s upcoming internal presidential race, projecting that he could secure close to 70 per cent of the votes.
Speaking on Metro TV on Thursday, January 22, Mr Mercer said feedback from party structures across the country points to overwhelming grassroots support for the former Vice President.
“From what we are seeing on the ground, Dr Bawumia is likely to win with close to 70 per cent of the votes. The support base is very strong,” he said.
Mr Mercer, who is leading over 100 former NPP parliamentary candidates from the 2024 elections in backing Dr Bawumia, attributed the momentum to the former Vice President’s accessibility and track record in office.
He added that such a commanding victory would position the party strongly ahead of the 2028 general elections.
