Sources within the camp of Vice Presidential Candidate of the New Patriotic Party(NPP), Dr. Mathew Opoku Prempeh, affectionately called NAPO have denied reports claiming he has been flown to Germany for medical care.

An ‘X’ account with the address Uncle Paa Kwesi @papakwesi_jr on Friday, August 30, 2024, made the claim, which attracted some 823 views.

His spokesperson, Fiifi Boafo who rebuffed the claim posted on his Facebook page, “This is NAPO at Ofuman in the Bono East at 9 pm on Friday, 30th August 2024.”

Dr Mathew Opoku Prempeh, who has not directly responded to the alleged propaganda posted “Last night in Offuman, Techiman North, it was truly uplifting to hear about how Dr. Bawumia’s initiatives are simplifying lives.

From the renewal of NHIS and the ability to purchase ECG credit via mobile phones to the implementation of a national ID system, these efforts are making a tangible difference.

Alongside the transformative Free Senior High School policy, which has brought relief to chiefs, religious leaders, and dedicated Ghanaians alike, these achievements are driving their strong support for Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia to safeguard these gains. I encouraged everyone to advocate for the NPP in market squares, offices, churches, mosques, and every place where people gather. With God, it is possible!”, he stated.
