Relatively, Bawumia has expressed confidence in his efforts to make history for the New Patriotic Party (NPP) in the general elections of 2024.
He declared that he would lead the party to victory in the 2024 elections, making history as the only political party to do so during the Fourth Republic.
Speaking to NPP supporters in Hohoe, Dr. Bawumia declared he would run in and win the flagbearership primary.
“I want you to know that I appreciate your support. We are going to break the 8. First of all, we are going to file for the flagbearership which I’m going to do, win the flagbearership, break the 8, and go to Jubilee House. That is what I’m going to do,” he said.
On May 26, a group referred to as the “Bawumia Fan Club” acquired the presidential nomination papers for the vice president.
The vice president also disclosed that the government intends to give senior high school students laptops in place of textbooks while he was in the Volta Region.
