The 2024 Flagbearer of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), Dr Mahamudu Bawumia, has called on his party to expand its reach and embrace a more inclusive approach in its future reform agenda.
The former Vice President of Ghana made the remarks during the party’s ongoing Thank You Tour in the Oti Region.
Speaking at a town hall meeting at Dambai, Dr Bawumia highlighted the importance of involving a wider cross-section of the Ghanaian society in the policy-making process.
He stated that to effectively respond to the country’s changing needs, the NPP must engage more diverse voices across all regions and demographics.
“Looking ahead, we should broaden our base in our next reforms. It is vital that we include voices from every region, from youth and women’s groups to traditional authorities and the business community, so that our policies reflect the aspirations of all Ghanaians,” he indicated.
According to myjoyonline.com, Dr Bawumia noted that the lessons from the 2024 Election campaign and the party’s post-election engagements provided critical insights into the concerns of citizens.
He added that these lessons should guide the party’s direction moving forward.
He commended the NPP’s grassroots volunteers and campaign teams for their commitments and hard work during the election season.
However, he acknowledged that there is always room for growth and improvement in how the party operates and connects with the public.
“Our strength lies in our unity and diversity. By reaching out to new stakeholders, we strengthen our party and our nation. The NPP’s long-term success depends on its ability to evolve and remain responsive to the needs of all Ghanaians,” he stated, the report said.
The Thank You Tour is part of a nationwide effort by the NPP to engage with supporters, assess electoral feedback, and chart a course for future activities.
The party is expected to continue the tour in other regions in the coming weeks.
