Dr Bryan Acheampong, the Member of Parliament for Abetifi and a presidential hopeful of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), has confidently stated he is going to win in the 15 constituencies that the MPs declared support for Dr Mahamudu Bawumia.
According to Dr Bryan Acheampong, most of the 15 Members of Parliament who declared support for Bawumia called him afterwards.
He further revealed that he texted Dr Bawumia, warning him to fear delegates.
Dr Acheampong highlighted that in the Eastern region, 20,000 NPP delegates are voting and out of that, only 15 support Bawumia.
Speaking during his campaign run in Achiase in the Eastern Region, Dr Bryan Acheampong stated, “In the Eastern region, 20,000 delegates are voting here. Some days ago, I heard 15 MPs in the Eastern Region declared their support for Bawumia. 20,000 people are voting here, and out of that, 15 are saying they are supporting someone else.
They even organised a press conference about it, and the truth is that after the press conference, they even called me. But I have texted Dr Bawumia to fear the delegates”.
He added, “In the Eastern Region, those 15 people who have declared support for another person, I will win their constituencies one by one. The one who led the press conference, this is his constituency, and I am going to win here as well. Kofi, wherever you are, can you hear your people are saying they will not vote for your man?”
His remarks follow the Achiase MP, Kofi Ahenkorah Marfo, who has revealed that 15 out of the 23 New Patriotic Party (NPP) Members of Parliament in the Eastern Region have declared their support for Dr Mahamudu Bawumia’s presidential ambitions.
