Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, the flagbearer of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), has appealed to the people of Nanung for their support in the upcoming December elections. Highlighting his potential for an extended tenure, he pointed out that while former President John Mahama can only serve for four more years, he himself could serve for eight years if elected.
During his campaign tour in Bimbilla, in the Northern region, Dr. Bawumia assured the residents that they could reject him if he fails to deliver on his promises after the first term.
“I am the Vice President; I’ve not been president yet and I want to plead with you, I am going to the contest with my senior John Mahama. He has been president before, and when he comes, he has only four years. When I come, I have eight years, so, if you look at the presidency, do we want four years or eight? After four years, he won’t come but I will come for renewal, so please give me the chance, so that I can be accountable.”
Nyelinbolgu Naa Dassana Andani Yakubu, the regent of Bimbilla, expressed his full support for Dr. Bawumia, acknowledging the positive contributions of the NPP government to the constituency. The regent expressed hope that, if elected, Dr. Bawumia would establish a health institution, upgrade the Bimbilla municipal hospital, provide a university, and improve the water supply for Nanung.
