As the NPP prepares for its presidential primaries on January 31, 2026, delegates are faced with a crucial decision. Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia’s bid for the party’s flagbearership has sparked controversy, with many questioning his commitment to the party’s grassroots.
The Same Faces, Same Neglect
The individuals backing Bawumia’s bid are the same government appointees, MPs, and party executives who have neglected and disrespected party members. If Bawumia wins, it’s likely that this neglect and disrespect will continue, with the same individuals being appointed to key positions without consideration for the grassroots.
A Message to Delegates
Delegates should take note of this and vote against Bawumia’s bid. By doing so, they can send a strong message that they will no longer be ignored or disrespected. The NPP’s success depends on its ability to empower its grassroots, not just a select few.
The Power is in Your Hands
Delegates have the power to shape the party’s future. By voting against Bawumia, they can ensure that the party’s leadership is accountable to its members, not just a privileged few. It’s time for the NPP to prioritize its grassroots and choose a leader who will represent their interests.
