The 1st Vice Chairman position, considered the second most coveted, drew 13 candidates. Kojo Bamba, a former bodyguard of Nana B, emerged victorious, positioning himself above his rivals. His campaign emphasized appreciation for his supporters and a promise to return power to them, while assuring the improvement of parliamentary seats for the party. Once elected, Bamba's inaugural speech highlighted his commitment to self-sacrifice, humility, and courage. The election results reflected a historic revolt by the grassroots, marking a significant moment in Ghana's political history.",
