Ya-Na Abukari II, Overlord of Dagbon has called on Vice President Dr Mahamudu Bawumia and Former President John Dramani Mahama, flagbearers of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) and the National Democratic Congress (NDC) respectively to see themselves as brothers and not enemies.
He made this statement when Dr Bawumia paid a courtesy call on him as part of his thank you tour after being elected flagbearer of the NPP.
“John Mahama is your big brother and not your enemy. See him as an elder brother as you go about your campaign.
“We just have to be grateful to all Ghanaians for trusting that only a Northerner can lead Ghana after 2024. It is a big opportunity for us to demonstrate our maturity, competence, honesty and dedication to move Ghana forward,” Ya-Na said.
Dr Bawumia for his part said “Ya-Na, I wish to assure you that my team and I will conduct a clean campaign as you have indicated because myself and John Mahama are all your sons. What I will be doing is that I will bring to bear my ideas that I know will complement the development we are currently seeing.
“My brother lacks ideas and so tends to criticize my ideas but I know Ghanaians are decerning and will vote for the NPP that I lead.”
