Let’s all rise and rebuild for 2028 victory – Bawumia tells NPP supporters

Former Vice-President and 2024 New Patriotic Party (NPP) flagbearer, Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, has urged party supporters to unite and begin rebuilding efforts ahead of the 2028 general elections.

Speaking in the Volta Region on Thursday, May 8, as part of the NPP’s ongoing ‘Thank You Tour’, Dr. Bawumia called for renewed commitment to a cohesive and forward-looking campaign, stressing that the work done now would determine the party’s success in the next electoral cycle.

“Let us all rise and rebuild together, for victory in 2028 is not a dream but a mission. We have the talent, the ideas and the resolve—now is the time to act,” Bawumia urged.

Acknowledging the party’s defeat in the 2024 polls, Dr. Bawumia encouraged supporters to move beyond disappointment and focus on revitalising party structures at all levels.

“We did not achieve the result we desired, but that is behind us now. What matters is how we rise from this and strengthen our party’s structures at every level,” Bawumia advised.

Acknowledging the party’s loss in 2024, he encouraged members to focus on revitalisation, including strengthening grassroots structures and recruiting new volunteers.

“We must rebuild our grassroots presence. From regional executives down to polling-station agents, everyone has a role to play in restoring confidence among Ghanaians.”

Dr. Bawumia also underscored the strategic value of the Volta Region, traditionally an opposition stronghold, saying it presents an opportunity for the NPP to earn trust through sincere engagement and fulfilled promises.

“This region is ripe for transformation. By engaging sincerely with local concerns and delivering on our promises, we will earn the trust of communities here,” he remarked.
