I told Dr Adutwum my brother, this battle is not yours – Annoh-Dompreh

The Minority Chief Whip and Member of Parliament for Nsawam-Adoagyiri, Frank Annoh-Dompreh, has called on New Patriotic Party delegates to support former Vice President Dr Mahamudu Bawumia, saying he is on track to win the party’s presidential primaries.

Mr Annoh-Dompreh made the call on Monday, January 19, 2026, when he joined Dr Bawumia’s campaign tour in the Ashanti Region and addressed party supporters and delegates ahead of the contest to elect a flagbearer for the 2028 general elections.

He said the party must make a strategic and united decision and cautioned delegates against spreading their votes among several candidates.

“Bawumia is going to win the forthcoming presidential primaries. So don’t go and spoil your vote,” he said, adding that unity behind a clear frontrunner is important for rebuilding the party.
