The office of the Vice President have wasted no time in replying to campaign posters of the Vice President, Mahamudu Bawumia, seen in Tamale.
The posters are of a 2020 Presidential run for the Veep, implying that the President would not run for re-election.
In a swift response, the office of Bawumia has rubbished the posters, asking the public to treat them with contempt as they are meant to discredit the Vice President.
Full statement below…
The attention of the Office of Vice President Dr Mahamudu Bawumia has been drawn to posters purporting to indicate that H.E. Dr Bawumia has begun a campaign to lead the New Patriotic Party into the 2020 elections.
It is clear that the perpetrator(s) of this act intend to cause disaffection for the Vice President but their campaign will fail.
For the avoidance of doubt, we wish to state unequivocally that the posters are the figment of the imagination of the originator(s), and we call on all Ghanaians and the general public to treat the poster campaign with the contempt it deserves.

Frank Agyei-Twum
