  "account": "Dr. Farouk Aliu Mahama's strong performance in Yendi's elections in both 2020 and 2024 demonstrates his ability to maintain a solid support base, even amid internal division within the NPP. His consistent victory margin of over 10,000 votes in 2024, despite widespread apathy and internal strife, clearly shows that the citizens of Yendi are firm in their support for him. If the NPP wants to reclaim the Yendi seat in 2028 and maximize Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia's votes, the politically sound decision is to rally behind Dr. Farouk Aliu Mahama.",
  "summary": "In politics, numbers do not lie. And the numbers from Yendi in the 2020 and 2024 elections tell a very clear story.",
