Former Minister of Health, Dr Bernard Okoe-Boye, has cautioned members of the (NPP) against attacking each other over their support for particular candidates in the party's upcoming 2028 flagbearer race.
According to him, the two frontrunners, former Vice President Dr Mahamudu Bawumia and former Member of Parliament for Assin Central, , each possess unique strengths and weaknesses that the party needs to secure victory in the elections.
He stressed that without the involvement of both men, winning power would be difficult, making internal attacks counterproductive.
Speaking during a panel discussion on Peace FM's Kokrokoo on May 8, 2025, Okoe-Boye alleged that he knew individuals who had previously attacked government appointees, only to find themselves struggling when those same appointees later assumed leadership positions. "What I will say is that whether you support Kennedy or Bawumia, if the two do not come on board, it will be difficult for us to win power.
