NPP holds National Islamic Thanksgiving Service in Kintampo; Bawumia calls for unity ahead of 2028

The New Patriotic Party (NPP) convened its Islamic National Thanksgiving Prayer Service at the Kintampo Central Mosque in the Bono East Region on Friday. This solemn ceremony aimed to express gratitude to Almighty Allah for a peaceful and successful National Executive election, which selected eleven national executives to guide the party into the 2028 general elections. The event was attended by NPP faithful, Muslim clergy, and party executives.

Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, the party's 2028 Flagbearer, led the congregation in prayer, expressing thanks for the party's progress and recounting his choice to concede defeat in the 2024 presidential election. Bawumia stated that he believed it was not his time to win and traveled to Mecca for Umrah to thank God for his party's election outcome.

The NPP's newly elected National Chairman, John Boadu, urged Muslim and Zongo communities to support Bawumia's candidacy, emphasizing his background as both a Muslim and Zongo individual. Boadu's endorsement highlighted the party's strategy to strengthen support in key demographic groups for the upcoming elections. The service was attended by a large crowd of supporters, Muslim clergy, and party officials.

The atmosphere was charged with enthusiasm as supporters chanted and sang in favor of Bawumia. The presence of Muslim clergy added a spiritual dimension to the event, with prayers for the party's future and national prosperity. Key attendees included Bawumia, Boadu, the newly elected national and regional executives, Muslim clergy and community leaders, and prominent party members.

The NPP's thanksgiving service underscores the party's commitment to regroup, reflect, and strategize ahead of the next general elections. With a united front and a faith-based message, the NPP is positioning itself as a force for national transformation. The enthusiastic chants of supporters echoed through Kintampo, declaring the NPP's readiness to advance with gratitude to God and hope for the future.
