Alhaji Sule Binchera, a prominent former campaign coordinator for Kennedy Agyapong in the Yendi Constituency, has officially thrown his support behind Vice-President Dr Mahamudu Bawumia ahead of the 2025 presidential elections.

Photographs circulating on social media show Alhaji Binchera in a warm meeting with Dr Bawumia on Thursday, July 24, in what sources close to the Vice-President have described as “a significant endorsement.”

His defection is seen as a boost to Dr Bawumia’s campaign, especially in the Northern Region, where both men command strong grassroots appeal.

Speaking after the meeting, Alhaji Binchera explained his decision, stating: “The interest of the party and the country must come first. I believe Dr Bawumia is the right leader to continue the transformation agenda and secure victory for the NPP.”

He urged all party faithful to rally behind the former Vice-President for unity and progress.

The Vice-President welcomed the endorsement with appreciation, describing it as a sign of the growing momentum of his campaign.

“This is the time for all of us to come together, put the past behind us, and work towards breaking the eight. I’m grateful for Alhaji Binchera’s support,” Dr Bawumia remarked.
