Group invoke Prof. Busia ‘s blessings for Dr. Opoku Prempeh
The ‘G Boys’, an emerging political group in the New Patriotic Party (NPP) in the Wenchi constituency in the Bono Region at the weekend, visited the graveyard of the late Professor Kofi Abrefa Busia to seek favour and ancestral blessings for Dr Mathew Opoku Prempeh to become the NPP’s Election 2024
Running-mate.
According to the group, it had conducted a research and that put Dr Prempeh, the Minister of Energy and Member of Parliament for Manhyia South on the edge to become the Running-mate of the Vice President
Alhaji Dr Mahamudu Bawumia, the flagbearer of the NPP.
Led by its founder, Mr Richard Kwadwo Adu, and other members of the group, Okyeame Nana Anto Nketiah, a linguist at the Wenchi Traditional Council poured libation on the tomb of the late Prof Busia, Ghana’s
Second Prime Minister from 1962 to 1972, and in 1978.
Mr Adu, a former Wenchi Youth Organiser of the NPP explained the visit to the tomb was not only meant to seek favour for Dr Prempeh, but also ensure that the party win the Election 2024.
“The NPP has its roots in Wenchi and we strongly believe that ancestral lineage of the late Prof Busia played an integral role in
the appointment of the 2024 Running-mate for our great party”, he stated.
He explained although the outcome of the research conducted by the group confirmed Dr Prempeh as the best pair for Alhaji Dr Bawumia, there was still need for the party to consult and sought favour from
the ancestral spirit of the late Prof Busia for the “pair to break the eight in the Election 2024”.
“In fact, the signs are clear and we are very optimistic that with the acceptance and approval of the late Prof Busia, Dr Bawumia would appoint Dr Prempeh as his running mate in the supreme interest of our
great elephant party”, Mr Adu stated.
Describing Dr Prempeh as vibrant and impactful, Mr Adu indicated that with him, Alhaji Dr Bawumia could easily move the country towards the fourth industrial revolution through his digitalization agenda.
“Though the task of breaking the eight seems herculous for the party, with Dr Prempeh, the NPP can win the Election 2024, and break the
eight to make the fourth industrial revolution a reality under Dr Bawumia government”, he added.
Mr Adu indicated the “G Boys” which had about 200 members had a proven
track, and recounted it conducted similar research which favoured the Vice President Alhaji Bawumia as a running mate for President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo in the 2008 General Election.
“In fact, the late Prof Busia contributed exceptionally to our great party and to restore civilian government. So, it is imperative to
consult and seek his favour and blessing for our great party anytime
we head for a general election”, he stated.
