Dennis Miracles Aboagye, the Director of Local Government Services at the Office of the President, says the upcoming Presidential election of the New Patriotic Party(NPP) is already settled and, to him, it is a done deal for Vice President Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia.

According to Dennis Miracles, the New Patriotic Party is looking for a leader with two distinct qualities and the person who bears those qualities is the Vice President.

"We are looking for a leader with two qualities; one that can win the elections in 2024 for us and one that can actually execute the job when we elect him. At the moment, Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia is the person with these two qualities," he said during Peace FM's 'Kokrokoo' discussion programme.

To him, there is absolutely no shred of doubt that the party delegates will elect the Vice President to lead them into next year's presidential election.

"Everywhere you go around this country, the voices you hear, the sound you hear from the party people who take the decision is very unanimous that Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia is the person to win power for us. No doubt about that," he asserted.

The New Patriotic Party will hold a Super Delegates Congress in August this year to trim the number of aspirants from ten to five before they conduct their main primaries in November, 2023, to elect their flagbearer.

The ten aspirants which include Vice President Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, former Trade Minister; Alan Kyerematen, Assin Central Member of Parliament; Kennedy Agyapong, former Agriculture Minister, Dr. Owusu Afriyie Akoto, former Energy Minister; Boakye Agyarko, former Railway and Development Minister; Joe Ghartey and former General Secretary of the party, Kwabena Agyei Agyepong among others are gearing up to give one another a tough competition in hope of being elected the party's leader.
