Member of Parliament (MP) for Sekondi, Andrew Kofi Egyapa Mercer, has endorsed Vice President Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia as the New Patriotic Party’s (NPP) candidate for the 2024 general election.
The Vice President, he emphasized, is the clear candidate to lead the NPP through the 2024 elections.
He said, “I support Dr. Bawumia 500 per cent. I know all the candidates qualify for the position and every one of them has the right to contest, but I believe the Vice President stands tall.”
In an interview with Accra-based Asempa FM, Lawyer Egyapa Mercer, who is also the Deputy Minister of Energy said, “I respect all the candidates vying for the position, but I believe Dr. Bawumia is the man who can win power for the NPP.”
“I have relationships with all contestants, but I believe Dr. Bawumia should be our next flagbearer going into election 2024,” he pointed out.
The MP for Sefwi Akotombra and a former Deputy Minister of Western North, Alex Tetteh, made the disclosure in an interview on Accra-based Peace FM while commenting on a survey report which put Dr. Bawumia far ahead of his other competitors in the NPP presidential race.
