Thousands of residents of Chereponi on Thursday, July 11, 2024, defied early morning rains to offer a mammoth reception for the Presidential candidate of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), Dr. Bawumia immediately he got down from his campaign bus and walked through the rains on the main street to engage them.
The NPP Flagbearer upon his arrival was ambushed by thousands of residents in the rains, when he walked through as the excitement of the crowd grew, with more people, young and old, on foot, motorcycles, and tricycles emerging from all corners, chanting his name in support.
Dr Bawumia, has intensified the second phase of his nationwide campaign towards the 2024 General Elections with community engagements and a house-to-house in the North East Region.
On the first day of his Community Connect Campaign Tour in the North East Region, Dr. Bawumia visited several traditional leaders, including the Nayiri (Overlord of the Mamprugu State) at Nalerigu, the Gbintiri Naa at Gbintiri, the Yunyoo Rana at Yunyoo, and the Bunkpurugu Naaba at Bunkpurugu respectively.
Dr. Bawumia’s campaign has so far been consultative, energetic, and grassroots-based as he engages with traditional rulers, and community members through his street-to-street, market, and house-to-house campaigns and it is unlikely that he will depart from this routine, considering the enormous impact he made in the first phase of his campaign.
He was accompanied by his campaign team members, some ministers of state and government officials, as well as the National, Regional, and other executives in the region.
