The NPP’s Director of Communications, Richard Ahiagbah, took to social media on Saturday to warn against being misled by Mahama’s efforts to present himself as a new candidate.

“Dr. Bawumia is the future,” Mr. Ahiagbah concluded. “Bawumia is capable and would catalyze Ghana’s next chapter with bold solutions.”
