Former Chief Executive Officer of InterCity State Transport Corporation, Nana Akomea has clarified recent comments by former Vice President of Ghana, Dr Mahamudu Bawumia, in his ongoing "Thank You Tour".
The former vice president, who is currently in the Western Region to thank the New Patriotic Party members and supporters as well as the entire nation for their support and votes for him during last year's elections, has been calling for unity within the party as they march forward into the 2028 elections.
Speaking to the party faithful, Dr Bawumia discounted the argument that his religious affiliation as a Muslim played a role in the New Patriotic Party's defeat in the 2024 general elections.
Addressing NPP faithful at the party's headquarters on Wednesday, April 23, 2025, Dr Bawumia dispelled the religious claims as baseless, stating "some people said that they didn't vote for us because our presidential candidate was Muslim.
