Minority Chief Whip, Frank Annoh-Dompreh
Minority Chief Whip, Frank Annoh-Dompreh believes that it will be most unfair for the New Patriotic Party (NPP) to jettison Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia.
He premises his stance on the fact that no flagbearer of the NPP has won at the first instance of contesting for the flagbearership in the fourth republic.
Therefore, Dr Mahamudu Bawumia will also have to be given the benefit of the doubt to try a second time.
Annoh-Dompreh was speaking to Bola Ray when he made this known.
“I will support Dr Bawumia. I respect Kennedy; he is a good man, and I think he is a true blue-party person but I think it is most unfair for us to jettison Dr Bawumia. Because in our tradition, nobody has won the presidency at a go. President Akufo-Addo was three times, President Kufour was two times. So I think it will be most unfair but I respect Kennedy,” he told Bola Ray on Starr Chat.
The New Patriotic Party lost the 2024 elections woefully under the leadership of Dr Mahamudu Bawumia.
Some sections of the political party are of the view that per the former Vice president’s abysmal performance in the election, he should be dropped for a new face to contest for the 2028 elections.
They are of the view that a new face is what will save the NPP rather than someone who has ties with Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo.
