Ekua Amoakoh explains how Bawumia’s policy ideas drew her closer to NPP before 2024 elections

Spokesperson for NPP flagbearer Dr Mahamudu Bawumia and the New Patriotic Party’s (NPP) Health Committee, Dr Ekua Amoakoh, says a briefing by Dr Bawumia helped convince her to become more committed to the party ahead of the 2024 general elections. She said she had been largely detached from the NPP before taking up research into its health sector record, but her findings and an encounter with Dr Bawumia changed her perspective. Speaking in a personality profile interview on JoyNews’ PM Express with Emefa Adeti, Dr Amoakoh said her limited political engagement at the time was reflected in her social media activity.
