The former Vice President, Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, will on Wednesday, October 15, 2025, begin a nationwide campaign tour as part of his bid to become the flagbearer of the New Patriotic Party (NPP).
A statement from the Bawumia Campaign Team issued on Tuesday, October 14, said the tour, which will cover all 276 constituencies, is aimed at deepening grassroots engagement and strengthening the party’s structures ahead of the NPP’s presidential primaries.
According to the statement, the campaign will provide Dr. Bawumia with an opportunity to interact directly with polling station and electoral area coordinators, constituency executives—both current and former—as well as former Members of Parliament, former MMDCEs, patrons, and members of the Council of Elders.
The campaign described the tour as a demonstration of Dr. Bawumia’s commitment to listening to party members, building consensus, and fortifying the NPP’s foundation from the ground up.
“Dr. Bawumia looks forward to sharing his vision and collectively working towards a resounding victory for the NPP in the 2028 general elections,” the statement said.
The campaign team also reiterated its call for an issue-based and civil campaign, expressing concern over what it described as a growing trend of personal attacks and insults in party communications.
“Such conduct is not in the spirit of the NPP and runs counter to the values of unity, respect, and decency that we hold dear,” the statement added.
It directed all communicators, supporters, and volunteers of the Bawumia Campaign to refrain from personal attacks and derogatory remarks against other aspirants, their families, or their supporters.
The team urged that all campaign engagements be grounded in facts, comparative analysis of ideas, and the track records of aspirants, emphasising that discussions should focus on policies, competence, and electability.
“As we seek to lead the NPP into the 2028 elections, we must remember that our goal is party unity and national progress. Communications that sow division and create lasting animosity only serve to weaken our collective front,” the statement cautioned.
It concluded by expressing confidence that Dr. Bawumia’s vision, experience, and policy ideas will resonate strongly with delegates when the campaign debate remains focused on issues.
The statement was signed by Dennis Miracles Aboagye, Communications Director of the Bawumia Campaign.
