Energy Minister, Matthew Opoku Prempeh, has subtly endorsed Vice President Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia as suitable candidate to lead the New Patriotic Party(NPP) into the 2024 elections.
The Minister wished for a Bawumia against Mahama contest during the Presidential elections, noting it will be an interesting competition.
Potential Candidates
Though it is almost one year for the yet-to-be announced NPP presidential primary, the race for the ticket keeps getting keener.
Last month, a new face joined the fray of interested presidential aspirants.
Kwabena Agyei Agyepong, a former Press Secretary to former President John Agyekum Kufuor from 2001 to 2006, former General Secretary of the NPP and one of 17 aspirants who contested for the party’s nomination to replace former Presidential Kufuor as presidential candidate for the 2008 general election, announced his intention to put his name up for consideration by delegates.
His announcement followed on the heels of Kennedy Agyapong’s declaration to contest the NPP flagbearership race.
