A survey conducted by pollster and journalist, Ben Ephson says Vice President Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia is the least favoured when it comes to the next candidate to take over from Akufo-Addo in the New Patriotic Party (NPP).
According to him, Trades Minister, Alan Kyerenateng; Railways Minister, Joe Ghartey and Assin Central Parliamentarian, Kennedy Ohene Agyapong. are more popular in the party than Dr Bawumia.
Reacting to this, Political science lecturer, Dr Amakye Boateng, however, thinks it is premature to discuss such issues.
"We will first analyze his methodology; how he was able to reach that conclusion; we will interrogate issues raised and find out if he is just trying to play mind games...but the path for the next leader of the NPP is not an immediate priority...looking at what is happening in the country now, this shouldn't be an issue. The focus should be on Nana Akufo-Addo and Bawumia. It is premature to bring this out now..." he said in an interview on Me Man Nti programme on Neat FM

ITS LL ABOUT STRATERGY TO RULE LONGER. NPP CAN USE BAWUMIA LIKE JOE BIDEN WHO DID NOT CONTEST RIGHT AFTER HIS TWO TERMS AS VICE-PRESIDENT. HE TOOK A LEAVE REFLECTED ON POLITICAL CONDITIONS AND HAD WON TO COME BACK AS PRESIDENT. GOOD FOR BAWUMIA HE HAS THE AGE ON HIS SIDE. HE CAN LEAVE MAJ. LEADER, ALAN, KEN, NAPO OR WHOEVER WHO CAN BE LESS IDENTIFY WITH AKUFFO ADDO LAUNCH A NEW BRAND OF NPP. BAWUMIA CAN RE LAUNC HIMSELF AFTER 4YRS OR 8YRS AS REVISED AKUFFO ADDO. AL GORE LOST TO ***barred word*** BECAUSE HE CAME IMMEDIATELY AFTER CLINTON. BIDEN HAS WON HANDS DOWN FOR ALLOWING A SPACE WITH OBAMA. ATTA MILLS LOST TO KUFFUOR BECAUSE HE WAS IMMEDIATELY TO JJ. EVERY LOYAL VP SUFFER FATIGE OF HIS BOSS.
WHY SHOULD THE SUCCESSION TO AKUFFO ADDO BECOME A DISCUSSION TO 2020 ELECTION. BEN EPHSON SEEM TO HAAVE DIABOLIC AGENDA TO CAUSE DISTRACTION AND DIVERT ATTENTTION FROM NPP SUCCESS.
