NPP presidential primaries: Dr. Bawumia begins nationwide campaign

Former Vice President of the Republic of Ghana, Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, has officially commenced his nationwide campaign to lead the New Patriotic Party (NPP) into the 2028 general elections.

According to a statement from his campaign team, the tour is set to begin on Wednesday, October 15, 2025, and will encompass all 276 constituencies of the nation.

The campaign, characterised as a grassroots-focused initiative, will enable Dr. Bawumia to engage directly with polling station executives, electoral area coordinators, constituency officers, former party leaders, and other significant stakeholders.

It was explained that this initiative is part of his dedication to enhancing party unity, listening to members, and establishing a more robust foundation for success in 2028.

The campaign urged party members and supporters to uphold decency and discipline during the flagbearer contest.

“We must refrain from insults, personal attacks, and false allegations. Our focus should be on promoting Dr. Bawumia’s vision, achievements, and ideas for the country,” the statement read.

The team further encouraged all NPP communicators and supporters to ground their discussions in facts and substance rather than emotions or personal matters.

“We believe Dr. Bawumia’s experience, leadership, and policies will speak for themselves when the debate is focused on real issues,” the campaign noted.

The team members further called for unity, reminding party members that their common goal is to secure victory in 2028.
