The Flagbearer of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia's campaign momentum in the northern parts of Ghana is on the rise, following what his campaign team says has been highly successful engagements in the Upper East Region.

Over the past weeks, Dr. Bawumia has pitched camp in the north, engaging with diverse stakeholders, including traditional leaders, religious leaders, and the youth, in the North East, Northern, Savannah, and Upper West regions respectively, with huge crowds welcoming him.

On the last lap of his northern tour in the Upper East Region, which began last Friday, mammoth crowds have welcomed Dr. Bawumia in Bawku, Garu Tempane, Pusiga, Talensi, Nabdam, Chiana Paga, Bolga and Navrongo.

In each of these constituencies where he connected with the youth, some of the crowds waited for hours, some in the rains, for his arrival.

Dr. Bawumia has tailored his messages to meet the expectations of his different audiences, telling huge crowds about the massive development projects the NPP has brought to all five northern regions.

Wherever he has been in each constituency, Dr. Bawumia lists several projects the government has undertaken in the area since 2017, to demonstrate how the NPP has kept faith with the people.

On the contrary, Dr. Bawumia has been highlighting how the National Democratic Congress (NDC), under former President Mahama, neglected the north and rather exploited the north through SADA, which he said was an avenue for corruption, at the expense of the people of the north.

In almost every constituency, Dr. Bawumia has challenged former President Mahama to name a SADA project in the constituency.

Dr. Bawumia is the first northerner to be elected leader of the NPP in a major election, and for the first time, both the leading candidates of the two leading parties will be from the north.

This makes the 2024 election an interesting one, as Dr. Bawumia has made significant inroads in what was previously safe grounds for Mahama and the NDC.
