Former vice president and New Patriotic Party (NPP) flagbearer hopeful Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia has urged party members to put Ghana’s national interest above internal disagreements as the party prepares to select its flagbearer for the 2028 general elections.
In a New Year message, Bawumia emphasized that victory in 2028 should be the party’s primary goal, warning that internal divisions could weaken the NPP’s prospects.
“To every NPP member listening to me, let us keep our eyes fixed on the prize. We must win 2028 for the sake of Ghana,” he said.
Bawumia cautioned that personal attacks and negative campaigning within the party would only provide ammunition to political opponents.
He urged party members to focus the flagbearership contest on ideas, vision, and policy direction rather than personalities.
“We should not be distracted by the storms around us, the rumours, and the perceived divisions. Let us set aside anything that has the potential to divide our party even further.
This flagbearership contest should only be about ideas and vision, and not personal attacks on any of us. We only provide ammunition to our opponents if we engage in such anti-party acts,” he added.
The NPP is scheduled to elect its flagbearer on 31 January, marking the formal start of preparations for the 2028 polls following constitutional reforms aimed at broadening participation in the selection process.
