A member of the Bawumia campaign team Mr Yaw Adomako Baafi has described the Vice President as the game changer for the New Patriotic Party (NPP) in the upcoming 2024 presidential election.
According to him, the Vice President is the only one in the party to make breaking the 8 mantra come into reality. Speaking in an interview with Kumasi-based Hello FM, Mr Yaw Adomako Baafi insisted that if the NPP needs someone to follow President Akufo – Addo, then it must be Vice President Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia because choosing any other person will make the ‘Breaking the 8’ agenda a mirage
“Bawumia is the game changer. If you will break the 8 then you need a game changer. You would need someone like Bawumia to continue the good work of Akufo – Addo and it can’t be possible for you to change him”. He said monitored by MyNewsGH.com.
