Tribalism, religious bigotry pose existential threat to NPP – Bawumia warns

Former Vice President, Dr Mahamudu Bawumia, has cautioned members of the opposition New Patriotic Party (NPP)

Former Vice President Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia has cautioned members of the opposition New Patriotic Party (NPP) against allowing tribalism and religious bigotry to fracture the party as it works towards a political comeback.

Addressing delegates at the NPP’s National Delegates Conference in Accra on Saturday, July 19, Dr. Bawumia described such divisive tendencies as a major threat to the party’s survival and success.

“Tribalism and religious bigotry, from whichever quarters they emanate, pose an existential threat and should have no place in the NPP,” he said.

His remarks came as part of a broader appeal for unity and discipline within the party following its 2024 electoral defeat.

Dr. Bawumia stressed that rebuilding the NPP’s strength ahead of the 2028 general elections requires solidarity and a renewed commitment to shared goals.

“An army that wants to win a battle must exercise discipline within its ranks,” he noted, urging members to rise above internal divisions and reaffirm their dedication to party ideals.

He called on party faithful to work collectively to restore public confidence and position the NPP as a credible alternative capable of leading Ghana once again.
