Former Vice-President and flagbearer hopeful Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia has cast his vote in the New Patriotic Party (NPP) presidential primary, marking his official entry into the party’s race for the 2028 flagbearership.
Voting began early this morning at over 300 polling centres nationwide, with thousands of accredited delegates lining up to cast their ballots. Alongside Dr. Bawumia, other aspirants in the contest include Kennedy Ohene Agyapong, Dr. Bryan Acheampong, Dr. Yaw Osei Adutwum, and Kwabena Agyei Agyepong.
At the NPP headquarters in Accra, Bawumia’s arrival drew a crowd of party supporters and media, underscoring his continued influence within the party.
According to the party guidelines, a candidate must secure more than 50% of the votes to win outright; if not, a run-off between the top two candidates will be held within 14 days.
Strong turnout was reported in major regions, including Greater Accra, Ashanti, and the Northeast, with security agencies on standby to ensure a peaceful process.
As counting and collation get underway later today, all eyes are on potential frontrunners and what the results will mean for the NPP’s strategy heading into 2028.
