Dennis Miracles Aboagye, Communications Director for former Vice President Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia’s campaign, has expressed strong confidence in Dr. Bawumia’s chances of winning the New Patriotic Party’s (NPP) 2026 presidential primaries. Speaking in an interview on Eyewitness News on Thursday, November 6, 2025, with Sammie Wiafe, Mr. Aboagye described Dr. Bawumia as the most experienced, prepared, and “winnable” candidate among the five aspirants seeking to lead the party into the 2028 general elections. “The reception has been good. He’s the most prepared of all candidates. He’s the one who has travelled the journey; he’s the most experienced. He has seen it all. That is something the party needs if we want to maximise our chances of winning the 2028 elections; he’s the most formidable among the other aspirants. Mr. Aboagye added that Dr. Bawumia’s message is resonating strongly with delegates across the country, who he said have now become “evangelists” for his campaign. “He’s the one who has been doing politics at the highest level. That formidability is required to go into the 2028 elections against an NDC opponent,” he said. Highlighting Dr. Bawumia’s extensive experience in government, Mr. Aboagye insisted that he is the candidate best positioned to give the NPP the edge in the next general election. “Of all the five candidates, he’s the winnable candidate for the party. If you are to put all of them in a measure, he gives us a better chance of winning the 2028 elections than any other,” he stated. Dr. Bawumia is currently on a nationwide campaign tour ahead of the party’s presidential primaries scheduled for January 31, 2026. The other four aspirants vying for the NPP flagbearer position are former Assin Central MP Kennedy Ohene Agyapong, former Food and Agriculture Minister Dr. Bryan Acheampong, former Education Minister Dr. Yaw Osei Adutwum, and Kwabena Agyei Agyepong, former Press Secretary to former President John Agyekum Kufuor.
