The New Patriotic Party (NPP) Minority Caucus in Parliament (MPs) have congratulated Dr Mahamudu Bawumia on his victory in the party’s presidential primary, commending his “vision, intellectual rigour, and resolute commitment to Ghana’s progress.”
A statement signed by Mr Alexander Kwamena Afenyo-Markin, the Minority Leader, said Dr Bawumia’s election “represents a clear mandate from NPP delegates to lead the party into the 2028 general elections.”
It urged party members to unite after what it described as a divisive primary, stressing that reconciliation and collective effort were essential for strengthening the party ahead of the next polls.
“Unity is not merely a political slogan but our fundamental source of strength,” the statement quoted Mr Afenyo-Markin as saying, recalling the party’s past electoral victories achieved through cohesion and solidarity.
The Minority Caucus pledged its support to Dr Bawumia’s leadership and assured him of strategic guidance from experienced Members of Parliament.
It also reaffirmed its commitment to holding the National Democratic Congress (NDC) administration accountable on issues including gold reserve depletion, illegal mining (galamsey), and youth unemployment.
“We envision a Ghana post 2028 where the Free SHS programme operates at optimal efficiency, and our economy generates widespread prosperity,” the statement added.
