Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, the flagbearer of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), made history on Monday morning when he presented his nomination forms to the Electoral Commission, marking a significant milestone in his bid for the presidency.
The event, which was attended by Bawumia’s running mate, Dr. Matthew Opoku Prempeh, the NPP’s National Chairman and General Secretary, the Majority Leader in Parliament, and other party leaders, was a formal declaration of Bawumia’s intention to contest the 2024 presidential election.
After filing his nomination forms, Dr Bawumia addressed party sympathizers and the general public at the NPP’s National Headquarters, outlining his vision for Ghana’s future.
His campaign is built around the theme of “Bold Solutions for Jobs and Businesses with Selfless Leadership,” and he has promised to bring a new level of leadership to the country.
Bawumia’s nomination filing marks a new chapter in Ghana’s politics, as he seeks to become the first vice president to ascend to the presidency.
His campaign has generated significant excitement among Ghanaians, who are eager for a new era of leadership.
The NPP has invited members of the party and the general public to be part of this historic moment, which marks a significant step towards the December 7 elections.
Bawumia’s nomination filing is seen as a significant development in the election campaign, and his message of “possibility” is expected to resonate with Ghanaians.
As Dr Bawumia embarks on his campaign, he will face off against other candidates, including the National Democratic Congress’s John Dramani Mahama.
The election is expected to be closely contested, but Bawumia’s nomination filing has marked him out as a strong contender.
