 delegates in a viral video have expressed their anger at the campaign team of Dr Mahamudu Bawumia){kind=link}
Three individuals from the campaign of Bryan Acheampong, one of the flagbearer aspirant for the upcoming NPP primaries has launch verbal attack on Dr Bawumia over what they described as measly GHC50 given to them as transportation fee.
The 3 who hail from Abetifi, Bryan’s constituency openly declared their allegiance to him in a viral video while expressing unwarranted anger at the campaign team of Dr Mahamudu Bawumia .
According to them, they spent more than 90 cedis on their transport to attend the campaign event, but were only given 50 cedis.
They claimed that some NPP delegates in other areas received GHC 100, calling it a sign of disrespect.
The delegates are now rallying behind Hon. Bryan Acheampong, urging all Abetifi delegates to vote massively for him in the upcoming NPP presidential primaries.
Speaking in a viral video, the NPP delegates stated, “ We rushed to Kwahu Tafo because they told us that Bawumia should come. When we got there, they gave us 50 cedis. When we said 50 cedis would not be enough for our transportation, they said Dr Bryan Acheampon had spoiled us with money.
When there is money and a person, we will choose the money and leave the person. We took the car in and out, and you gave us 50 cedis”.
They further added, “We are not fools to vote for someone who does not have respect for people. Opare Ansah gave the Suhum people 100 cedis, and they gave the Abetifi constituency 50 cedis. They have insulted us.
I am standing on this 50 cedis, if the Abetifi do not vote for Dr Bryan Acheampong, I will curse all of you”. Another suggested they will burn the town”.
Meanwhile, in related news, Alhassan Tampuli Sulemana, the Member of Parliament for Gushegu, has said the former Vice President Dr Mahamudu Bawumia is the New Patriotic Party’s (NPP) Omo and Pepsodent.
The lawmaker likened Dr Bawumia to Ghanaian consumers who always refer to any washing powder as Omo or any toothpaste to Pepsodent.
According to Alhassan Tampuli Sulemana, Dr Bawumia is NPP’s most preferred and marketable candidate to lead the party into the 2028 election.
He emphasised that Bawumia’s name has become synonymous with the NPP’s potential flagbearer.
Speaking in an interview with Channel One TV on October 23, 2025, Alhassan Tampuli Sulemana stated, “Dr Mahamudu Bawumia is our Omo, he’s our Pepsodent.
He recounted feedback from his constituents, “Some of them are saying, Dr Bawumia is like a well-marketed product. He’s the one that we have marketed more. And some of them even told us, Now look, we still even have his t-shirts.
So, if you go and bring somebody, as a matter of fact, if you bring some of the other aspirants to this community, nobody will recognise them”, Tampuli claimed.
He further insisted the decision to support Dr Bawumia was based on a careful assessment of all five contenders.
“We have seen them, we have weighed their capacity. We have weighed their likelihood of capturing political power for the NPP and in all humility… We have weighed them and we have sieved their strengths, their weaknesses. And we think that Dr Mahamudu Bawumia is the best person to lead us to the promised land”, he stated.
Meanwhile, the Global InfoAnalytics poll’s latest poll shared on October 24, 2025, shows Dr Mahamudu Bawumia maintains his lead in the NPP primaries ahead of the party’s elections.
In the poll result shared, Dr Bawumia maintains his lead in the NPP primaries but lost 3% compared to the September 2025 poll.
Kennedy Agyapong and Bryan Acheampong gained 2% each, but undisclosed voters skyrocketed while undecided delegates saw a huge decline.
The polls showed Dr Bawumia leading the NPP race with 44 per cent, Kennedy Agyapong with 19 per cent, Dr Bryan Acheampong with 5 per cent and Dr Adutwum and Kwabena Agyapong with 1 per cent respectively.
