Dr. Yaw Osei Adutwum, the minister of education, has said that he is prepared and eager to support Dr. Mahamadu Bawumia, the flagbearer of the New Patriotic Party, as his running mate in the 2024 presidential contest.
The Bosomtwe Member of Parliament reaffirmed in an interview on Tuesday, January 9, that he is prepared to provide his services to Ghana at any time.
Dr. Adutwum declared, “I am here to serve my nation; in any capacity I find myself, I will serve this nation.”
Prominent individuals have entered the race to be Dr. Bawumia’s running mate in the upcoming general elections, including Suame MP Osei Kyei-Mensah-Bonsu and Energy Minister Dr. Mathew Opoku Prempeh.
In December of last year, the NPP deviated from its custom and gave Dr. Bawumia more time to choose his running mate.
With the power to deviate from party guidelines, the National Council of the party decided to forgo the prerequisite of selecting the vice presidential candidate a year ahead of time.
