The governing New Patriotic Party (NPP)’s USA branch is set to officially introduce Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, the party’s flagbearer, as their presidential candidate for the upcoming general election.
According to Obaa Yaa Amponsah Frimpong, Chairperson of NPP-USA, the event is scheduled for Saturday, May 25, 2024.
It will take place at the Hilton Alexandria Mark Centre, situated at 5000 Seminary Road, Alexandria, VA 22311.
This move underscores the group’s unwavering commitment to ensuring Dr. Bawumia’s success in the December polls.
The occasion marks a significant milestone in the 30th Anniversary celebration of the NPP-USA Branch.
Established in September 1993, the branch convened its inaugural Congress in Virginia, USA, formalizing its inception, although its organizational efforts predated this official gathering.
Over the past three decades, NPP-USA has been instrumental in advancing the party’s agenda. Its endeavors include advocacy for democratic principles, the pursuit of political authority, advocacy for constitutional reform, promotion of electoral innovation and technology, and the establishment of the External Affairs office, among other pivotal initiatives.
The unveiling ceremony for the Presidential Candidate will underscore the robust backing and solidarity he garners from the Ghanaian community in North America, reaffirming NPP-USA’s steadfast commitment to securing his victory in the 2024 general elections in Ghana.
Additionally, the event will feature an award ceremony honoring patriots who have contributed to building the branch, as well as a fundraising activity to support the New Patriotic Party’s campaign and election efforts in 2024.
