Sixty-three (63) Members of Parliament of the New Patriotic Party have thrown their support for the former vice president and flagbearer hopeful, Dr Mahamudu Bawumia.
According to the Sixty-three MPs, they are confident in Dr Mahamudu Bawumia’s leadership and his commitment to Ghana’s development.
Kwaku Ampratwum-Sarpong, the Member of Parliament for Mampong, revealed that Sixty-three supporters are grounded not in sentiment, but in deep conviction.
Speaking at a press conference in Accra on Thursday, October 23, Ampratwum-Sarpong stated, “He is not just the candidate who can unite our party, he is the leader who can win the confidence of the Ghanaian people and secure victory for the NPP in 2028 and beyond”.
“Dr Mahamudu Bawumia is our choice,” he declared.
He further highlighted that the Vice President has “walked the path, carried the burden and delivered results.”
In a statement issued, they further wrote, “Dr Bawumia represents the enduring spirit of our Party — visionary, resilient, diligent, and pragmatic. From his days as a brilliant economist at the Bank of Ghana to his remarkable stewardship as Vice President, he has proven that leadership is not about words, but work; not about entitlement, but excellence and delivery”.
“He has walked with the NPP through every season of victory and trial — serving faithfully, defending our record, and carrying our message with conviction and grace. Dr Bawumia has been tested, trusted, and proven,” they declared.
In related news, the Global InfoAnalytics, in their new poll, have revealed that Dr Mahamudu Bawumia is regaining ground among disgruntled NPP voters who switched allegiance in the 2024 general elections.

The poll also revealed 39 per cent of this group also expressed renewed confidence in Dr Bawumia compared to Kennedy Ohene Agyapong’s 36 per cent.
“The fact that a majority of those who turned away in 2024 are now returning to support Dr Bawumia demonstrates his enduring appeal and credibility,” the report noted.
Dr Bawumia’s resurgence in the Ashanti Region will prove positive in strengthening unity and boosting morale ahead of the NPP’s presidential primaries.
The Global Info also announced that the beginning of its October 2025 delegates’ polls to assess whether there has been a shift in allegiance or voters remain keen on voting for Dr Bawumia.
Meanwhile, Dr Mahamudu Bawumia, a New Patriotic Party (NPP) flagbearer hopeful, has vowed to regularly engage with the party’s grassroots if elected president of Ghana.
The former vice president pledged to make grassroots participation a central part of his presidency by holding annual constituency meetings.
According to him, as the President, he would bring governance closer to the people through direct and consistent grassroots engagement.
Speaking to delegates on the first day of his tour of the Bono Region, where he visited the Banda, Tain, and Wenchi constituencies, Dr Bawumia stated, “If I am elected President, I will make time to regularly engage with the party’s grassroots”.
“Just as former President Kufuor did, I will dedicate at least one day each year to meet directly with members at the constituency level through town-hall-style meetings.”
“These interactions will allow me to listen to your concerns firsthand and work on them. This is how we will stay connected, and I will ensure that as President, your voices are heard and your issues are addressed.”
