In Banda, where the Bono Regional tour commenced, the constituency chairman, on behalf of his people, assured Bawumia of their support once again, having voted massively for him during the last primaries.
“We already know who you are, so we are eager to vote massively for you better than what we did in 2023,” the Chairman assured.
“Our elders say the person you already know, you don’t need light in the night to look at their face. All we wanted was for you to come and contest again and by the grace of God you have come so my people have asked me to inform you that they will repeat in 2026 what they did for you in 2023 during the last primaries.
“In the 2023 primaries, you came here in Banda Constituency, and we promised to vote for you, and we did just that by placing 3rd in the whole of Bono Region. And my people say I should assure you again that God willing, on January 31 they will do even better for you.”
Similar assuring comments were made by party members in Tain and Wenchi constituencies, with Dr Bawumia expressing gratitude to them and assuring that he will continue to work with them for victory to be achieved together.
