The Director of Communications of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), Richard Ahiagbah, has affirmed that the vice president, Dr Mahamudu Bawumia remains committed to the people of Gonjaland.
Mr Ahiagbah highlighted Bawumia’s instrumental role in realizing the creation of the Savannah Region, a pledge fulfilled under President Akufo-Addo’s tenure, contrasting it with the unmet promise of former President John Dramani Mahama.
Concluding his tour of the North East Region on Monday, May 13, Dr. Bawumia expressed gratitude for the warm reception from the people.
The President of the North East Regional House of Chiefs, Ndugna Nayiri Naa Bohugu Abdulai Sheriga, lauded Bawumia’s decorum in the ongoing campaign and encouraged him to maintain the same conduct.
The Nayiri also praised Bawumia’s exemplary service as vice president and pledged the region’s unwavering support for his presidential aspirations, citing his competence, loyalty, and respect for traditional institutions.
“Bawumia will always stand with Gonjaland. He firmly supported H.E. Akufo-Addo in creating the Savannah Region, a promise that H.E. Mahama failed to fulfill during his presidency. Vote Bawumia to do more for Gonjaland.”
“I have observed so far the civility and the admirable nature with which you conduct your campaign.
“I will urge you to continue in same manner,” he said.
“As we prepare for election this year, the least we can do for you as the son of the soil is to honour you with the opportunity to serve at the highest echelon of state power.
“We shall not turn our back on you, especially having demonstrated competence, loyalty, resilience and more importantly regard for the institution of Chieftaincy.
“I am deeply persuaded that you have it in you to carry out the task ahead. You can rise to the challenge and uphold the good name of Ghana and make her greater and stronger,” he said.
