A dedicated entrepreneur and philanthropist, Mathew Silas Amoah, has officially submitted his nomination to participate in the New Patriotic Party (NPP) Primaries within the Bolgatanga East Constituency, Upper East region.
At the age of 34, he firmly believes that his dynamic youthfulness coupled with his extensive business experience positions him as the optimal choice to spearhead the NPP’s representation in the area.
Amoah remains hopeful that his potential election would result in a successful acquisition of the seat currently held by the National Democratic Congress (NDC), reflecting his aspiration to contribute significantly to the political landscape.
Meanwhile, the NPP’s upcoming presidential primaries, scheduled for August and November 2023, will involve ten candidates.
An initial super delegate conference in August 2023 will narrow the field to five contenders, followed by the main primaries in November 2023 to select the party’s presidential nominee for the 2024 elections.
The roster of candidates includes Vice President Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, former Trade Minister Alan Kyerematen, energy expert Kwadwo Poku, Attorney General and Minister of Justice Joe Ghartey, former Minister of Food and Agriculture Dr. Owusu Afriyie Akoto, former General Secretary of the NPP Kwabena Agyei Agyepong, MP for Assin Central Kennedy Ohene Agyapong, former MP for Offinso North Dr. Kofi Konadu Apraku, and former Energy Minister Boakye Agyarko.
