Fear Grips NDC As Bawumia Pulls Huge Crowd In Ejura

Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, was welcomed by a mammoth crowd to Ejura


Vice President and Flagbearer of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, was welcomed by a mammoth crowd to Ejura on Wednesday, November 13, 2024, as he toured the Ejura-Sekyedumase Constituency.

Even though Ejura-Sekyedumase is in the Ashanti Region, it is one constituency where the National Democratic Congress (NDC) has dominated over the NPP, winning the parliamentary seat there most of the time in the 4th Republic, with the NPP winning only twice.

However, the NPP has expressed its determination to win both the presidential votes and also snatch the parliamentary seat from the NDC. From the mammoth crowd that greeted Dr. Bawumia, it's clear the NDC is in for a battle to maintain the seat.

The NDC traditionally receives strong support from the large Zongo and Muslim community in Ejura, but this time, it was the Zongo community that turned up in numbers to welcome Dr. Bawumia into the town and at his community connect rally.

Before the community connect, Dr. Bawumia received a rousing welcome as his bus arrived. As he made his way to the venue, he met stakeholders of the constituency, including traditional rulers, Imams, and tribal chiefs from the Zongo, as well as the clergy.

At the community connect, the clergy delivered a powerful prayer for the Vice President before the big Zongo delegation commended Dr. Bawumia for his immense support to both the Zongo and Ejura.

The biggest boost for Dr. Bawumia and the NPP Parliamentary Candidate was when the Ejura Traditional Council, led by Barima Osei Hwediem II, declared their strong support for Bawumia for the numerous development projects that have come to the town through his interventions.

With Ejura assuring Dr. Bawumia and the Parliamentary Candidate of their unflinching support, they headed to the community connect in high spirits, especially after Bawumia had an engaging meet and greet on the street.

At the community connect, they were met with a mammoth crowd of enthusiastic young men and women, including many said to be converts from the NDC.

The huge crowd was so diverse that some speakers had to address them in various languages, including Dagbani, Dagarti, Mamprusi, and Fulani.
