Bawumia Was Expected To Declare His Running Mate Long Time Ago But… – Nana B

Henry Nana Boakye, the National Organizer of the governing New Patriotic Party (NPP), has corroborated claims that the Vice President, Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia will within the next two months declare his Running Mate.

Nana Boakye, speaking on Peace FM’s morning show “Kokrokoo”, noted that unveiling of the Running Mate is long overdue.

As the nation awaits the announcement of the person to occupy the Running Mate position, names like Dr. Matthew Opoku Prempeh, Energy Minister, Henry Kwabena Kokofu, the Chief Executive Officer of the Environmental Protection Agency and STC Chief Executive Officer, Nana Akomea, have popped up among others for the slot.

However, Dr. Matthew Opoku Prempeh alias NAPO is highly predicted to be selected for the position.

Nana Boakye, popularly called “Nana B”, revealed that the Vice President should have announced his Running Mate a long time ago according to the constitution of the NPP, however, it is not late.

He explained that Dr. Bawumia sought permission from the leadership of the party to have time for consultations to make the right decision.

He was optimistic that the Veep will make the name of his Running Mate open to the party leadership as soon as possible.

“If any person says His Excellency the Vice President, the leader of the party, the next President will soon unveil his Running Mate, again, it is also expected. He should made the announcement a long time ago but he pleaded for time to engage in consultation and the party also agreed with him as this is not a decision to make in haste. So, if he says he wants to do a deep consultation, we agree with him and gave him such period”, he said.
