According to Akwasi Anti Asamoah, former President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo, despite several unsuccessful attempts at the presidency, consistently maintained Dr Bawumia as his running mate. He believes the same strategy should be applied by maintaining Dr Opoku Prempeh, popularly known as NAPO, as Bawumia’s running mate. Speaking in an interview on Angel TV, which has since been shared on social media, Anti Asamoah said every individual has flaws but Dr Opoku Prempeh has acknowledged his shortcomings and worked on them. Akufo-Addo contested with him as running mate three times, and they eventually won. Dr Bawumia has since been elected again to lead the NPP and is yet to name his running mate for the upcoming election.
