Ennin expressed confusion over Dr. Bawumia's indecision, emphasizing that the NPP flagbearer has the constitutional right to choose a running mate who can aid him in his administration. He speculated that internal disagreements within the Jubilee House might be causing the delay, leading to Dr. Bawumia’s hesitation. “What amazes me is that former President Kuffour clearly and openly chose his running mate, and so did Akufo-Addo.
