NPP needs to beg Amin Adam to contest again, or else we’ll lose Karaga seat – John Boadu
The New Patriotic Party (NPP) must ensure former Finance Minister and Karaga MP Mohammed Amin Adam contests the 2028 parliamentary election, newly elected National Chairman John Boadu has said. According to Mr Boadu, Dr Amin Adam is one of the candidates whose electoral strength is already evident, making it unnecessary for the party to subject […]
John Boadu, the newly elected National Chairman of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), has urged the party to ensure that former Finance Minister and Karaga MP, Mohammed Amin Adam, contests in the 2028 parliamentary election. Boadu believes that losing Adam as their candidate could result in the NPP losing the Karaga parliamentary seat.
He argues that in cases where candidates have a proven track record of winning their constituencies, the party must take strategic decisions to safeguard such seats. Boadu further asserts that holding a primary in such constituencies would be a waste of resources that could be better utilized for the general election. He cites the Damongo constituency, where NPP MP Samuel Abu Jinapor has won twice, as another example of a strategically important constituency for the party.
Boadu's comments come after NPP President, Dr Mahamudu Bawumia, announced that the party is identifying potential parliamentary candidates ahead of the 2028 general elections. Bawumia emphasized that the selection process aims to find candidates capable of winning parliamentary seats rather than relying solely on internal primaries.
