Northern Regional Chairman of the ruling New Patriotic Party (NPP), Mohammed A. Baantima has warned all party members and supporters to immediately stop their activism for a flagbearer for the party come 2024.
The Regional Chairman, in a statement copied to Peacefmonline.com, says, ''this ugly phenomenon, if not nibbed in the bud, has the tendency of disturbing the party peace and cohesion and drawing back on the performance of the government of H.E Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo''.
He has also warned all NPP faithful to stop engaging the media on their quest for a suitable candidate for the position.
''Henceforth, all party people are to respect the directive to suspend all activities related to the conduct of presidential primaries until such a time that the green light is given for people to do so. That all media engagements related to the above should cease forthwith.
''Failure to adhere to the above will attract disciplinary measures as the regional executive committee is not ready to allow a chaotic front of the party in the region.''

Take a Rest from where? When your opponent is breathing over your shoulder and accusing you being an Akan Party , why shouldn't you prove them wrong whiles you can. Dr. Bawumia is more popular than Alan and can be at best be a vice for now.
ALAN NOW BAWUMIA TOMORROW The habit to groom people for leaderdhip is very beneficial to the entire society. It prepares them to become psycologically and socially fit to the job. The two Presidents of NPP have made very significant impacts in Ghana politics because they were adequately prepared. Ghana is considered one of the best democracies in the world at the times of Nana Addo and J.A. Kufour. It is sad that Mahama isl considered, even in international circles, that Mahama is one of the most corrupt government in Ghana. This happened because he was not adequately prepared. Ghanaians and NPP must think of a long term plan to retain the gains of good governance and use all their best presidential materials. Bawumiah is good to lead Ghana, but he still have age at his side. Many in Ghana believe that God prepared Nana Addp and kept him for Ghana at this time. Today Alan appear to be the best presidential material for Ghana. It is not a matter of "Adru me so" He has the all it takes to win another presidency for NPP and give Ghana another good governance. He needs the support of his party and Ghanaians to do this. He is very well measured in mind and speech. He has the ability to adjust to conditions to build concensus, He can be at the same time very firm. He is humble and respectful not used to vulgar laguage like Mahama. Hi is capable to make friends with his opponents and easily reconciles with those who opposes him. He is naturally born leader. Both Bawumiah and Alan have worked very hard for the success of Nana Addo Administration. Bawumiah ae VP would be easily identified as 3rd term of Nana Addo.. Alan cadidacy might reduce that notion.Many now see Alan as indipendent than Bawumiah. It is human nature to keep good things yet there is always a desire to see modifications. Internationally Alan has build a strong trade network which we need today for the progress of the nation. He has the capacitty and a clear mind to get a good deal in doing transactons and negotiations. Ghana need robus Trade and Economic power to sustain the gains of the great political achievements. As we approach 2024 serious political decisions must be made by certain individuals in order to remain politically relevant or irrelevant in the future. Bawumia may choose to contest the flagbearership but it would be the best for him to take a rest having been with Nana Addo for two terms. He needs to plan and develop his own brand for his presidency. We dont want him to become another Mahama who entered the political arena for the presidency unprepared. Alan has launched his brand since Kufour's time and it is well resounded with many Ghanaians. Ghanains, especially, NPP can do the debate while the keen observers watch the actions and reactiobs of of the major political actors.
