Former Minister for Works and Housing and prominent New Patriotic Party (NPP) member, Lawyer Samuel Atta Akyea, insists that Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia remains the most attractive and compelling candidate among all aspirants seeking to lead the New Patriotic Party.
Speaking on Adom 106.3 FM, he stressed that the ongoing internal contest has been largely free of personal attacks and that healthy comparison is a necessary part of democratic competition.
According to him, political campaigning cannot be conducted without highlighting comparative advantages. “Bawumia is more attractive than all the other aspirants,” he said, noting that the party must choose the best person for the role, and in his view, the former Vice President, Dr. Bawumia stands tall among the contenders.
Atta Kyea added that sincerity and loyalty are essential in party politics. He argued that if an aspirant claims to love the NPP but refuses to support the party after losing an internal election, such an individual cannot be trusted.
“If someone says he loves the NPP but fails to campaign for the party after he doesn’t get the votes, then he is selfish,” he stated.
His remarks add to the growing endorsements surrounding Dr. Bawumia ahead of the party’s crucial decision-making period.
