The 2024 Presidential Candidate of the the New Patriotic Party (NPP), Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia on Wednesday commenced a 5-day tour to the five Northern regions.
He commenced the tour from the North East Region, dubbed “Community Connect” by visiting the Nalerigu Gambaga constituency and thereafter storming the Yunyo and Bunkpurugu Constituencies respectively.
Addressing a gathering at Gbintiri in the Nalerigu/Gambaga constituency, Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia appealed to the electorate to critically examine the policies and initiatives implemented by the NPP government over the past seven and half years and compare it to that of the main opposition National Democratic Congress ahead of the December elections.
Dr. Bawumia said the measure of a people-centred government is how impactful its policies and programmes have been for the ordinary Ghanaian.
The NPP, Dr Bawumia insisted, stands tall in this regard.
Promising even brighter days ahead, Dr. Bawumia stated: “The government of Nana Akufo-Addo has laid a foundation for growth, and the next government, led by him, will further implement policies and programmes that will boost business and industry, provide accelerated and improved healthcare, more quality and accessible ICT-based education, and help make the life of the ordinary Ghanaian even better.”
On the first day of his constituency campaign tour in the North East Region, Dr. Bawumia paid courtesy calls on the Nayiri (Overlord of the Mamprugu State) at Nalerigu and other traditional leaders including the Gbintiri Naa at Gbintiri, Yunyoo Rana at Yunyoo and the Bunkpurugu Naaba at Bunkpurugu.
He will also engage key stakeholders including youth groups, embark on door-to-door campaigns and partake in community engagements with the NPP parliamentary aspirants of the Nalerigu/Gambaga, Yunyoo and Bunkpurugu constituencies.
Meanwhile, the Omanhene of the Wassa Amenfi traditional area and President of the Western Regional House of Chiefs Tetrete Okuamoah Sekyim II has assured NPP Vice Presidential Candidate Dr Matthew Opoku Prempeh popularly known in political circles as Napo that he and his chiefs will continue to pray for him and Dr. Bawumia for their dreams to become reality.
This comes barely 24 hours after being outdoored by the NPP, as Dr Matthew Opoku Prempeh hit the ground running with his maiden tour as the running mate of Dr Mahamudu Bawumia.
The Omanhene made the remarks when the Dr Opoku Prempeh called on him at his palace in Wassa Amenfi.
On his part, Dr. Matthew Opoku Prempeh expressed gratitude to Tetrete Okuamoah Sekyim II asking for more of his prayers for him and the flagbearer as they crisscross the country asking the electorate for their vote.
He indicated that politicians who speak the truth are always tagged as disrespectful while those who lie are praised.
