Race for Presidency: Mamprugu youth declare support for Bawumia

Mamprugu Zaabuni Youth for Development, a prominent advocacy group in the Mamprugu traditional area, has officially declared its support for Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, the Vice President and flagbearer of the New Patriotic Party, in the upcoming presidential elections on December 7th.

During the group's Congress held in Walewale, North East Region, Mr. Musah Abdul Basit, the President of the group, passionately encouraged the youth in the area to actively contribute to Dr. Bawumia's victory.

“We encourage the youth of Mamprugu to wholeheartedly support one of our own for the presidency, regardless of political affiliations. If a similar opportunity arises from another political party in the future, Zaabuni will not hesitate to offer maximum support,” remarked Mr. Basit.

The Congress served as a platform to assess the region’s development and reinforce the group’s commitment to advocating for improved opportunities. The event carried the theme “Rekindling the Glory of Mamprugu; Our Collective Responsibility.”

The group underscored Dr. Bawumia's significant contributions to Mamprugu, urging the youth to actively support his electoral success, which would mark a historic achievement for the region. Mr. Basit pointed out notable government projects, including the extension of electricity to various communities and the development of sports facilities in the area.

The group expressed satisfaction with the establishment of its own region. Engaging in community service for about eight years, they have assisted the needy by covering medical bills and school fees. Previously, the group appealed to the Vice President for the construction of a bridge connecting Arigu to the Shiling community.

As the special guest at the Congress, Vice President Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia highlighted various developmental projects in the region. These initiatives encompass the establishment of the STEM Senior High School at Kpasenkpe, the Fire Service Training School at Wungu, and the ongoing construction of roads in Walewale, Nalerigu, and Gambaga towns.

Dr. Bawumia assured that efforts were underway to complete the Misio bridge for improved transportation, and he emphasised the ongoing benefits of the Agenda 111 hospital projects across all districts in the region.
