Retain Bawumia For 2028- NPP Volta Chair

The regional chairman cited the experiences of former Presidents John Agyekum Kufuor and Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo as examples of persistence leading to victory.

“President Kufuor went twice before we got it. President Akufo-Addo went three times before we got it,” he reminded party supporters, suggesting that Dr. Bawumia should be given another opportunity to lead the NPP into the next election.

Chairman Woanyah also drew parallels with the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC), pointing out that former Presidents John Evans Atta Mills and John Dramani Mahama both made multiple attempts at the presidency before eventually winning.

“Mahama went three times and got it. The first was because President Mills passed away, and with the mourning and sympathies, he won in 2012. But when he came back in 2016, he lost. They repeated him in 2020 — he lost again — and then he came back in 2024,” he explained, arguing that persistence remains a proven political strategy.
