Despite allegations of poisoning within the governing New Patriotic Party, Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, the party’s 2024 flagbearer and Vice President of Ghana, remains unruffled.
The recent passing of John Kumah, Ghana’s Deputy Minister of Finance and MP for Ejisu, sparked speculation that both he and Bernard Antwi Boasiako also known as Chairman Wontumi were poisoned after an event in Tamale. In addition, there are fears that other NPP officials could be targeted due to their political ambitions.
