A coalition of more than 490 Youth Organisers of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), comprising substantive and deputy leaders from constituencies across Ghana, has thrown its full support behind former Vice-President Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia ahead of the party’s January 2026 presidential primary.
The endorsement was sealed at a strategic meeting on July 29, 2025, where delegates unanimously expressed confidence in Dr. Bawumia’s leadership, track record, and vision for Ghana’s future.
In a statement following the meeting, the group praised Dr. Bawumia for his “unwavering dedication to national development, digital transformation, sound economic reforms, and his steadfast commitment to empowering Ghanaian youth.” They added that his “innovative policies and forward-looking governance style” make him the right leader to steer Ghana beyond 2028.
As part of their show of solidarity, the coalition announced plans to mobilise resources to pick up Dr. Bawumia’s nomination forms on Wednesday, August 13, at 9:00 a.m., pledging to energise the youth base nationwide ahead of the elections.
“We are convinced that Dr. Bawumia has the ability to build an inclusive, resilient, and prosperous Ghana,” the statement read, describing the move as “not merely a political endorsement but a solemn commitment to shaping a better future for the next generation.”
The coalition also called on all well-meaning Ghanaians, especially the youth, to rally behind Dr. Bawumia in his push for economic resilience, job creation, and national progress, noting that the endorsement had the blessings of Regional Youth Organisers and the majority of polling station youth leaders across the country.
