Vice President Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, flagbearer of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), has charged members of his campaign and manifesto teams to execute their duties with a united front to ensure victory in the 2024 general election.
He said unity was crucial to the success of the party in the elections, rallying all members to contribute their quota towards victory.
The Vice President made these remarks when he officially commissioned the committees in Accra on Wednesday.
The Campaign Committee is chaired by Mr. Dan Kweku Botwe, a former Minister of Local Government, Decentralization and Rural Development, while Mr. Osei Kyei-Mensah-Bonsu, Member of Parliament for Suame, chairs the Manifesto Committee.
The Vice President entreated all members of the party to be ready to hit the ground running to ensure the objectives of the committees are met.
Dr. Bawumia said the NPP had the ingredients to win the elections on December 7, indicating that the party had the message and the vision to propel the country towards economic growth.
He explained that, since the Party assumed office in 2017, it had outperformed its main opponents—the National Democratic Congress—in every sector.
The Vice President said the NDC had a “very blurred vision accusing the opposition party of being in a quandary.
Dr. Bawumia said the formation and inauguration of the Campaign and Manifesto teams indicated the Party’s commitment to hit the campaign ground running.
Mr. Botwe, Chairman of the Campaign Committee, said the goal of the team was to execute a campaign that would win the NPP the majority seat in Parliament and elect its Flagbearer as the President for the next four years. To achieve that, he assured the Flagbearer and leadership of the Party of their commitment to work together with discipline and in a coordinated manner.
Mr Kyei-Mensah-Bonsu, Chairman of the Manifesto Committee, urged members to put the interest of the Flagbearer and the Party above any personal.
Mr. Stephen Ntim, Chairman of NPP, tasked the committees to remain focused and avoid squabbles to ensure the Party achieved its objectives.
