A group identifying itself as the NPP Grassroots has expressed concern about the prevalence of posters, videos and other communication materials of Vice President Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, defending his presidential ambition.

The statement further noted that: “If party members wanting to contest the post of polling station executive, constituency executive, member of parliament, and national executive in 2022 have not started putting up posters, then the vice president should know better. “. .
They highlighted: “It is obvious that the new patriotic party cannot afford to lose the general elections of 2024. Especially when our party under the leadership of Nana Akufo-Addo has laid a solid foundation to consolidate development.”
The group also argued that it viewed this “desperate” action by the vice president and his team as one that seeks to “send the New Patriotic Party into the opposition.”
“This is because Ghanaians cannot understand why a vice president, who must focus on supporting the president to be successful in his second term, prefers to channel his energy to begin his flagging campaign less than three months into the second term. from President Akufo-Addo. In short, the vice president wants to discredit the PNP in the eyes of Ghanaians. ”
The PNP Grassroots alarmed that the measure could create chaos in the party said that they take a strong exception to the action of the vice president and are asking him to publicly disassociate himself from said action if he is not the one who sponsors it and subsequently instructs it. his people to tear down all the posters in question.
“Failure to do so will leave grassroots members with only one option and that is to remove all the posters of Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia oriented towards the 2023 PNP congress,” the statement said.
