Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia wants to run for president again under the NPP banner. The former vice president told more than 200 past local government leaders about his plans at the Alisa Hotel. He lost the 2024 election but believes he can win next time around. Bawumia pointed out how John Mahama came back from defeat to win power again. He thinks the same thing can happen for him and the NPP party.
The meeting brought together former mayors and district bosses from across Ghana. These local leaders used to work under Bawumia when he held office before. Many of them promised to help him campaign for the party leadership role. The gathering was part of his effort to build support across the country. People at the meeting seemed excited about his comeback plans.
Several other politicians also want to lead the NPP into the next election. Yaw Osei Adutwum served as education minister under the previous government. Bryan Acheampong handled farming issues as a cabinet member. Addai Nimoh represented Mampong as a member of parliament. Kennedy Agyapong was the lawmaker for Assin Central constituency.
The NPP needs to pick a new leader after losing to Mahama and the NDC party. Bawumia hopes his experience as vice president will help him win the internal contest. The party must rebuild and find new ways to appeal to voters. Competition for the leadership position will likely heat up over the coming months.
