Africa-Press – Ghana. <\/strong><\/span>The Vice President, Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia says his principle in the NPP flagbearership election is not to attack his opponents, but rather, focus on sharing his ideas and projecting the good works of the NPP Government.<\/b><\/p>\n

Addressing NPP stakeholders in Goaso in the Ahafo Region, Dr. Bawumia stressed that it will be toxic for him to attack his opponents in an internal contest, when the ultimate objective of every member of the NPP is to see the party defeat the NDC in 2024.<\/p>\n

\u201cI don\u2019t believe in attacking my opponents and I won\u2019t do that because it will be toxic and won\u2019t be good for our party,\u201d Dr. Bawumia said.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis is an internal contest to elect our flagbearer, so why should I attack my opponents or say something against our party? I am running a very decent campaign. I am selling my ideas to delegates and I do that with decorum, with humility, with respect and without mentioning anybody\u2019s name.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Vice President also said he has cautioned his campaign team members and spokesperson not to attack anybody, even if he is attacked by any aspirant, in the interest of the party.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis should be a contest of ideas not insults. So I have told all my staff not to insults or attack anyone. They should stick to sharing my vision and message to delegates. I have told them that even if I am attacked or insulted, they, should not respond because I am a unifier.\u201d<\/p>\n
