NPP flagbearership race: Bawumia picks up nomination forms

Mahamudu Bawumia has taken a significant step in his pursuit to lead the New Patriotic Party ahead of the 2024 elections by picking up nomination forms.

Bawumia on Monday told New Patriotic Party (NPP) supporters in the Volta Region of his intention to contest the party’s flagbearership race in November.

The Vice President has for months failed to publicly declare his intention to contest for the flagbearership slot of the party, though close aides have told Citi News he will run for the race.

The group led by its founder, Ntim Jakari said Dr Bawumia deserves to be given the nod to lead the NPP to help the party break the 8 and retain power in the 2024 elections

He acknowledged the support he has received and affirmed his determination to secure the flagbearership, break the eight-year cycle, and assume office at Jubilee House.

We are going to break the 8

First of all, we are going to file for the flagbearership which I’m going to do, win the flagbearership, break the 8, and go to Jubilee House
