Let us vote in peace and accept results in good faith – Bawumia to NPP

Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, the flagbearer of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), has implored party members to hold the national executive elections in a peaceful manner and accept the results with a positive attitude, as delegates convened in Kumasi to choose new party leaders. Addressing the gathering at the Baba Yara Sports Stadium on October 3rd, Dr. Bawumia urged aspirants, delegates, and their supporters to focus on party unity throughout the electoral process. "Let us vote in peace and accept the results in good faith," he asserted to the delegates.

The delegates, however, proceeded to ratify all 14 constitutional amendment motions proposed during the conference, despite the earlier objections of Acting National Chairman Joseph Danquah Smith. Smith had requested that the amendment process be postponed until the party's subsequent gathering due to time limitations and worries that delegates might not have adequate time to thoroughly examine the proposals while concurrently handling the national executive elections.

The motions were deliberated as the initial item on the conference agenda, and each of the 14 motions presented by the Constitution Amendment Committee was subsequently ratified by the delegates. The conference has now moved on to the election of the party's new national executives, who will steer the NPP through its forthcoming phase of internal restructuring.
