Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, vice president, has pleaded for the Otumfuo’s favor in order to prevail in the New Patriotic Party’s (NPP) presidential primary on November 4.

Last weekend, the Vice President attended an Akwasidae celebration at the Manhyia Palace with Asantehene Otumfuo Osei Tutu II, the King of the Asante Kingdom.

At the Party’s Super Delegates Conference on August 26, he acknowledged his appreciation for Otumfuo’s blessings and expressed gratitude for how Otumfuo’s blessings contributed to his success at the conference.

Being an Akwasidae, he declared, “I came in peace today. I came for a visit and to celebrate with him (Otumfuo).” Again, my primary purpose in coming here was to seek his blessing before I entered the race to be the NPP’s flagbearer.

He gave me a blessing, and God multiplied it so that I might win the competition on August 26, 2023.

Dr. Bawumia claimed that his trip to Manhyia was more than just an act of gratitude. In order to prepare for the NPP’s presidential elections’ final round, when he will compete against four other contenders, he expressed his need for Otumfuo’s ongoing blessings and prayers.

He said, “We have another contest coming again on the 4th of November, where we will elect the flagbearer, and I still need his blessing. So, I came back to ask for his blessing and inform him about it, that he may give me his blessings and show me the way to clinch victory. I thank you so much, and may God bless you.”
