In a significant move for the New Patriotic Party (NPP), Vice President Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia has formally informed the party’s National Officers of his nomination of Dr. Matthew Opoku Prempeh, popularly known as NAPO, as his running mate for the upcoming 2024 General Elections. The announcement was made today, July 1, 2024, at the NPP headquarters in Asylum Down.
The meeting at the NPP’s headquarters follows an earlier presentation of Dr. Opoku Prempeh’s nomination to the majority caucus of Parliament. Dr. Bawumia’s choice is seen as a strategic one, given Dr. Opoku Prempeh’s extensive experience in both the educational and political spheres.
