I have no doubt that you can deliver on the task Dr. Bawumia has given you – Okuapehene extols NAPO

Okuapehene, Oseadeayo Kwasi Akuffo III, has expressed confidence in the Vice Presidential Candidate of the NPP, Dr. Matthew Opoku Prempeh, saying that he knows him to be honest and believes he can effectively carry out the work assigned to him by the Flagbearer of the NPP, Dr. Bawumia.

Oseadeayo made these remarks when the Vice-Presidential Candidate called on him in Akropong on Thursday, July 25, 2024.

“I have known you to be a very honest man, so I have no doubt that you will execute the task Bawumia has given you seamlessly,” he said.

Oseadeayo continued, “The NPP has been exceptional in government, and I believe that your performance at the Education and Energy Ministries has significantly contributed to this cause. I know you can do more in a higher capacity, so we continue to pray for you.”

On his part, Dr. Matthew Opoku Prempeh reiterated the need for enhanced cordial relations among Ghanaian ethnic groups. According to Dr. Prempeh, this forms the foundation for progress and development in the country.

“The UP tradition, the forerunner of the present-day New Patriotic Party, was not the endeavor of a single ethnic group but a collective effort of Ghanaians from various backgrounds, so we are always reminded of the foundational principles of inclusivity and unity,” he said.

Dr. Opoku Prempeh also underscored the flagbearer’s track record in spearheading initiatives such as digitization, economic reforms, and infrastructure development, which he believes are crucial for the country's growth.

Dr. Prempeh later appealed to Okuapeman to vote massively for the NPP, canvassing for the parliamentary candidates of Akuapem North, Akuapem South, and Okere.

The move by the NPP running mate signals the party’s approach in mobilizing support from traditional authorities ahead of the 2024 election.

Throughout Ghana’s political history, the role of traditional leaders ininfluencing voter sentiment remains pivotal in shaping the electoral landscape.
