Stop lobbying Bawumia to be his running mate; it’s disrespectful – Ursula

The Member of Parliament for Ablekuma West constituency, Ursula Owusu-Ekuful, has expressed her disapproval of the idea of lobbying to be the running mate for the flagbearer of the New Patriotic Party, Dr Mahamudu Bawumia.

Such actions, according to her, are disrespectful and undermine the decision-making authority of the Presidential nominee.

In an interview with Bernard Avle on the Citi Breakfast Show, the communication minister emphasised the importance of allowing Dr Bawumia the freedom to make his choice without external pressure.

“Let him be given the space to choose the person he best thinks can partner with him. I think it is even disrespectful for people to be lobbying as if he can’t make his own decision,” she stated.

She continued: “Is that a position you lobby or gamble for? I am absolutely against any active seeking of any such position. It is an appointed position. I think the flagbearer should be left and given the space to decide who he thinks can best partner him.”
