Dr. Matthew Opoku Prempeh has characterized his selection as the running mate for Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia as a call to greater service.
The National Executive Council of the NPP unanimously endorsed him as Bawumia’s running mate on Thursday, July 4.

In a statement following his appointment, NAPO expressed gratitude to the party’s members for selecting him as the running mate.
“I consider this nomination a call to higher service, a call to sacrifice a duty to perform. The NPP is enriched with numerous astute personalities; therefore, I recognise the significance of my selection and do not take it lightly,” he stated.
NAPO also urged members of the party to unite behind the flagbearer, Dr. Bawumia, emphasizing the collective effort needed to achieve success and fulfill their mandate to break the eight-year cycle.

“I understand that the task ahead requires our collective effect, and I, therefore, plead with every party member to come on board as we seek the mandate of our countrymen and women once again to serve them.
“As I assume the role of running mate alongside my esteemed boss, H.E. Dr. Bawumia, I am committed to supporting him to prosecute a formidable 2024 campaign to break the 8-year election cycle and serve our beloved country diligently. Let us work together towards a brighter future for Ghana,” he stated.
