A professor at the University of Ghana has sparked controversy with comments about the NPP’s presidential primaries. According to Prof. Alhassan Sulemana Anamzoya, some high-profile supporters of former Vice President Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia have declared their intention to contest against him, which he sees as a vote of no confidence.
Kwabena Agyapong, Bryan Acheampong, and Dr. Yaw Adutwum were among those who initially supported Dr. Bawumia’s bid. However, their decision to contest against him has raised questions about party unity and loyalty.
Prof. Anamzoya’s Perspective
In Prof. Anamzoya’s view, the actions of these former supporters undermine the party’s internal dynamics. He believes their decision to contest reflects poorly on Dr. Bawumia’s leadership and the party’s ability to maintain cohesion.
Implications for the NPP
The NPP is set to hold its presidential primaries, and the contest will determine the party’s flagbearer for the next general elections. The party will need to navigate internal conflicts and ensure a smooth process to maintain its electoral prospects. Alexander Afriyie ghanatalk.com
