As election 2024 becomes crucial for the two major political institutions in Ghana, strategies to win power from the incumbent intensify from the opposition party.
However, with both parties having their new leadership from Northern Ghana, and as usual, these two heavyweights are expected to select their running mate and a possible Veep from the down south. The Ashanti region, tipped to be a major election decider for the New Patriotic Party is keenly levelling grounds to have one of their own chosen for the second top job position in the country.
There’s been political commentaries, there’s been analysis and there’s been the twists and turns.
One person the spotlight has recently been directed to is no other than the Honourable Agriculture minister and MP for Abetifi, Dr. Yaw Bryan Acheampong.
Dr. Bawumia’s ideal running mate would be a Christian from the southern part of Ghana. It’s crucial not to select just anyone but rather someone demonstrating presidential qualities suitable for the role of vice president.
Dr. Bryan Acheampong stands as a beacon of hope for the younger generation, and there’s a strong yearning among the youth for him to assume the vice presidency in the next administration.
The NPP is fortunate to have such an outstanding individual. Dr. Bryan Acheampong is widely considered a significant figure in the search for Dr. Bawumia’s running mate.
He possesses forward-thinking attributes, competence, credibility, reliability, trustworthiness, accountability, and a commitment to empowering the youth of Ghana.
