In the general elections of 2024, vice president Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia has vowed to deliver the National Democratic Congress (NDC) a “showdown” in its strongholds.
He claimed that the NDC is afraid that he would become the leader of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) because it is aware of his competitive edge over it, particularly in its strongholds, such as the Zongo villages and the Volta Region.
On Saturday, while conducting a campaign trip around the area, Dr. Bawumia addressed party supporters in the Oti Region.
“People in the Zongo communities say they doubt that the NPP will ever make Dr Bawumia the flagbearer for the upcoming 2024 general elections. However, if they do bring Bawumia, we will vote massively for him. Thus, the NDC will lose massively in their two strongholds, the North and the Zongo communities, should Bawumia emerge as flagbearer.”
“I will also win more votes for the NPP in the Volta region. Therefore, I will shake all their strongholds. That is why they (NDC) do not want Dr Bawumia to emerge as the flagbearer. Because they know that as flagbearer, I will give them a showdown in their strongholds,” he stated.
In the meanwhile, the Vice President poses no threat to them, according to Abraham Amaliba, Director of Conflict Resolution for the National Democratic Congress (NDC).
