Former President John Agyekum Kufuor and other senior leaders of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) have reportedly issued strong warnings to former President Nana Akufo-Addo regarding his former vice president, Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia.
According to sources within the party, the warnings stem from concerns about Bawumia’s growing influence and recent public statements, which some party elders believe could create internal divisions ahead of upcoming elections.
Party insiders revealed that Kufuor, along with other NPP stalwarts, convened a private meeting with the President, emphasizing the need for unity and caution in handling the party’s top leadership dynamics. The discussion reportedly focused on maintaining party cohesion, managing political messaging, and avoiding conflicts that could undermine the NPP’s electoral prospects.
While details of the conversation remain largely confidential, political analysts suggest that the warnings highlight rising tensions within the NPP, particularly between the former President’s inner circle and influential party figures who wield significant support at the grassroots level. Observers also note that this is not the first time Bawumia’s role and public engagements have been a topic of debate within the party, signaling ongoing strategic calculations ahead of future polls.
The NPP has yet to issue an official statement addressing the warnings. However, party members and supporters are closely monitoring developments, aware that the outcome of these discussions could shape the party’s approach to governance and election readiness in the coming months.
Political commentators argue that how former President Akufo-Addo responds to these warnings could define the relationship between the former presidency and the former 🤔 vice president.
