NPP Flagbearership Race: 'It's Not His Fault' - Nana Akomea On Bawumia Getting 'Special Treatment'

STC Boss, Nana Akomea has replied critics who feel Vice President Dr Mahamudu Bawumia is being given preferential treatment.

Former General Secretary of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), Kwabena Adjei Agyepong who is one of the party's presidential aspirants has urged the party to allow the Vice President to do his own campaign "instead of forcing people to declare their support for him; which is not good. It's against the tenets of our party".

He further criticised CEOs and other government appointees for openly declaring their support for Dr Bawumia.



But Nana Akomea responding to this said "it's not his (Vice President) fault" that he has people doing things for him. 

"He can't put his position down; it's just like a President contesting re-election, so it's an advantage and there's nothing you can do about it. The focus is your message. If the delegates accept your message, it doesn't matter whether or not you are the Vice President, but if your message is not accepted you'll lose. It's your track record and your message that'll decide your victory," he told Kwami Sefa Kayi on Peace FM's morning show 'Kokrokoo'.
