The Member of Parliament for Old Tafo, Lawyer Vincent Ekow Assafuah says the whole of the Ashanti region including its eminent chiefs would be disappointed if Energy Minister Mathew Opoku Prempeh is not picked as the running mate to NPP Flagbearer Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia in the upcoming 2024 general elections.
He told NEAT FM’s morning show, Ghana Montie in an interview that Asanteman would be happy to see a Bawumia-Napo ticket to break the 8 for the NPP.
“The people of the Ashanti region said they want to see Dr Mahamudu Bawumia as the President of the Republic of Ghana and they also said that the ticket that is going to give us that victory is a ticket that includes Mathew Opoku Prempeh,” he said.
Lawyer Vincent Ekow Assafuah further said Mathew Opoku Prempeh’s experience in politics is unmatched and perfect for the position.
“People doubted him [Mathew Opoku Prempeh] when appointed as education minister with a background in medicine but he proved people wrong. Today, he is an icon in the education sector.” He noted.
