NPP Youth Organisers rally behind Bawumia for 2028 flagbearer bid

Some New Patriotic Party (NPP) constituency youth organisers and their deputies have publicly endorsed former Vice President Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia as their preferred candidate for the party’s 2028 presidential primaries. 

The group, demonstrating strong support for Bawumia’s leadership, stormed Accra on Wednesday to pick up nomination forms on his behalf.

The youth organisers, addressing the media, praised Bawumia’s integrity and unifying influence within the party. 

"The only one we see as a unifier in the party is Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia. He is the only leader we believe is credible and has no iota of corruption associated with him," they stated.

They further highlighted his extensive political experience, saying, "The only person that has gathered the experience over the years, from 2008 until now, as a former Vice Presidential candidate and later becoming the former Vice President of Ghana is Dr. Alhaji Mahamudu Bawumia. And we believe strongly that the youth of Ghana—from our polling stations, electoral areas, constituencies, and up to the national level—are waiting for him to lead the NPP."

The organisers deliberately chose International Youth Day, observed on Tuesday, to submit the nomination forms, symbolising the youth’s confidence in Bawumia’s leadership.
