The General Secretary of the leading opposition party, National Democratic Congress (NDC), Mr. Johnson Asiedu Nketiah has said Vice President, Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia can never become the flagbearer of the ruling New Patriotic Party (NPP).
According to Mr. Asiedu Nketiah, Dr. Bawumia has been going around claiming he will be succeeding President Akufo-Addo as the flagbearer of the NPP despite having small candidates from his constituency.
Addressing the media in a briefing in Tamale of the Northern Region, Johnson Asiedu Nketiah stated emphatically that Dr. Bawumia is deserving himself by claiming he will become the next flagbearer of the NPP after President Akufo-Addo.
“When NPP decides to go for Congress and the number of candidates from the other constituencies have more numbers than the six you have in North East, how will you win?.

“Dr. Bawumia is going around saying that he will replace Nana Akufo-Addo as the next presidential candidate of the NPP. How can you become a presidential candidate when the delegates in NPP have to endorse you.
“How are the delegates selected; based on constituencies. So if some action is being taken to suppress the number of constituencies you can have in your area of influence and you are jumping around saying you are going to be a presidential candidate of the NPP, are you not deceiving yourself?”, Asiedu Nketiah stated.
