Bawumia selected NAPO based on experience – Nana B

Henry Nana Boakye, the National Organiser of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), has stated that the selection of Energy Minister Dr Matthew Opoku Prempeh, also known as NAPO, as the running mate of Dr Mahamudu Bawumia for the forthcoming elections was based on experience.

On Monday, Dr Bawumia disclosed his choice of running mate to the national executives of the NPP. This decision followed consultations with President Nana Addo Dankwa and Majority Leader Alexander Afenyo-Markin.

In an interview with Selorm Adonoo on Eyewitness News on Citi FM on Monday, Mr Boakye explained that Dr Bawumia’s selection was rooted in his rich experience as a running mate and a vice president.

He also indicated that it was also due to the consultations he had conducted.

“His Excellency the Vice President is making this decision with a huge wealth of experience. Why do I say so? In 2008 he was the running mate, in 2012 he was the running mate, in 2016 he was the running mate and we won, in 2020 elections he was again. His Excellency the president nominated him again to be his running mate. So he’s been eight years or more running mate and eight years vice president.”

“He’s made this decision based on his own experience, the consultation he’s done. So clearly you will expect such a man to come before national executives with some convincing and detailed reasons why he wants Dr Matthew Opoku to partner him,” he stated.
