Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, the flagbearer of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), has expressed strong confidence in his party’s chances of securing a decisive victory in the upcoming 2024 General Elections. Speaking at a rally in Nkawkaw in the Eastern Region on Saturday, October 19, Bawumia assured a crowd of enthusiastic supporters that the NPP is on the right track to win both the presidential race and a commanding majority in Parliament.
Drawing from the extensive campaign work he has undertaken, Bawumia emphasized that his team has visited more than 200 constituencies across the country, gathering valuable data that points toward an NPP victory. According to him, the current momentum of the party, combined with the insights gathered on the ground, clearly indicates a path to success for the ruling party. “We will meet them in the constituency. We will meet them at the polling stations, and what I can assure you from what I know after visiting over 200 constituencies, I have campaigned on the ground, I have seen the data,” Bawumia stated.
The flagbearer went on to express his certainty that if the election were held today, the NPP would secure a decisive majority in Parliament. “If we vote today, the NPP will have a decisive majority, not a majority, but a decisive majority in parliament,” he declared, fueling the confidence of his supporters. However, he reminded them that the election is scheduled for December 7, urging them to maintain their efforts to ensure the momentum continues until Election Day. “But we will not vote today. We will vote on December 7,” he continued.
Bawumia underscored the importance of unity within the NPP, stressing that the party’s internal cohesion will be crucial to achieving victory. According to him, the party’s ability to present a united front will not only help them win at the polls but also solidify their position in Parliament. “If it continues like this and we all come together, by midnight on December 7, you will all hear that the NPP has a decisive majority in parliament. We will win at the polling stations. So you all should vote for us,” he said confidently, rallying the crowd to action.
The NPP’s campaign for the 2024 elections has been centered around consolidating its successes in government and presenting a strong, unified front to the electorate. Bawumia, a central figure in this effort, has been engaging with communities across Ghana, focusing on showcasing the party’s achievements and promising further development under NPP leadership. His message has been well received by party loyalists, many of whom are energized by the prospects of another NPP victory.
As the Vice President of Ghana and now the NPP’s presidential candidate, Bawumia has gained significant political capital within the party and the country at large. His candidacy represents a continuation of the policies and programs of the current NPP administration, led by President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo. Bawumia’s role in shaping the government’s economic policies and his commitment to digital transformation and modernization have made him a key figure in the party’s strategy for the upcoming elections.
At the rally in Nkawkaw, Bawumia’s message was clear: the NPP is well-positioned to win the 2024 elections, but the party must remain focused and united. He emphasized that the NPP’s chances of success rest not only on the popularity of its policies but also on its ability to mobilize its supporters and maintain momentum. “We will meet them at the polling stations,” he reiterated, signaling the importance of grassroots mobilization in securing the vote.
The upcoming 2024 elections are shaping up to be a critical moment for Ghana’s political landscape, with the NPP and the National Democratic Congress (NDC) once again expected to face off in a highly competitive contest. Bawumia’s optimism about the NPP’s chances stems from what he sees as a strong track record of governance, particularly in the areas of economic management and infrastructure development. The NPP’s campaign strategy will likely focus on these achievements while also addressing issues such as unemployment, education, and healthcare, which are key concerns for many Ghanaians.
Bawumia’s confidence in a decisive parliamentary majority for the NPP is also significant, as control of Parliament will be crucial for the next government’s ability to pass legislation and implement its policies. A “decisive majority,” as Bawumia described it, would give the NPP a clear mandate to pursue its agenda without being hindered by opposition forces in the legislature. His repeated assurances to the crowd that the NPP would secure such a majority reflect the party’s determination to not only win the presidency but also dominate Parliament.
In the final stretch leading up to the December 7 elections, Bawumia’s message to supporters is one of optimism and determination. He has positioned the NPP as the party that can lead Ghana through its current challenges and into a future of continued development and progress. His call for unity within the party is aimed at ensuring that the NPP remains focused and energized in the critical weeks ahead.
As the rally in Nkawkaw came to a close, Bawumia’s words left the crowd with a clear sense of purpose: the NPP is on the path to victory, but it will take the collective effort of every supporter to make it a reality. With the data in hand and the campaign in full swing, Bawumia’s confidence in a decisive win for the NPP is unwavering. His message of unity and momentum is likely to continue resonating with supporters as the party gears up for what promises to be a highly contested election.
