The Member of Parliament for Tano North and spokesperson for Dr Mahamudu Bawumia, Dr Gideon Boako, has strongly refuted claims by the New Patriotic Party’s (NPP) Tano North Constituency Secretary and staff of the Ghana Revenue Authority (GRA) in Sunyani, Stephen Ntiamoah, accusing him of spreading falsehoods about his support for the former Vice President.
Mr Ntiamoah is alleged to have told delegates that Dr Boako’s support for Dr Bawumia is based solely on loyalty, despite allegedly believing he cannot win the 2028 elections.
In a sharp rebuttal, Dr Boako dismissed the remarks as “wicked lies” and questioned the credibility of the constituency secretary, suggesting his conduct has long been compromised, including alleged bribery during his tenure at the GRA.
Dr Boako stressed that his support for Dr Bawumia is rooted in conviction, not convenience. He described the NPP’s 2024 flagbearer as credible, experienced, and the most prepared leader to secure victory for the party.
“If anyone doubts Dr Bawumia’s strength, the appropriate path is to win the primaries with facts and strategy, not with lies and character assassination,” he stated.
Reaffirming his loyalty to his constituency and Dr Bawumia, the Tano North legislator cited the overwhelming 83% endorsement the Vice President received in Tano North during the 2023 primaries as evidence of their commitment.
He urged party members to ignore divisive tactics and remain united.
“We will not be distracted by lies or fabricated stories. The NPP’s victory in 2028 lies in discipline, hard work and truth, not deception,” he added.
