United for Bawumia (UFB), a political advocacy group within the opposition New Patriotic Party (NPP), has called on party members and aspirants to prioritize unity and discipline ahead of the party’s 31 January flagbearer election.
In a statement released on Wednesday (22 October) UFB emphasized that healthy competition is essential to democracy but stressed the importance of respecting fellow members and the party’s shared legacy.
“The race to select our flagbearer should be based on ideas, leadership qualities, and a shared vision for Ghana’s future, not personal attacks or political point-scoring,” said Alhassan Yakubu, President of UFB.
“After this election, it is vital that we come together to support the chosen candidate with unity, so that we can move forward with one message, one vision, and one purpose.”
The NPP, which led Ghana through significant economic and developmental reforms in recent years, is seeking a leader who can carry its vision into the 2028 general elections.
UFB warned that internal divisions and negative campaigning could undermine the party’s chances of regaining power.
“We must remember that our goal is to work together, with discipline and mutual respect, to give Ghanaians a compelling reason to entrust us with their vote in 2028. The NPP’s track record is one of progress, and we must continue to build on that foundation, not tear it down for short-term political advantage,” Yakubu added.
United for Bawumia (UFB) is dedicated to promoting party unity and supporting Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia’s leadership as the NPP’s flagbearer for the 2028 elections.
The group advocates for a campaign rooted in mutual respect, democratic principles, and Ghana’s long-term development.
