The National Chairman of the governing New Patriotic Party (NPP), Freddie Blay says the party’s leadership has begun private conversations on how to present an Alan-Bawumia ticket going into the 2024 general elections.
According to him, such a ticket will bolster the party’s chances of breaking the eight during the next elections.
Speaking to Kumasi-based Oyerepa TV on Monday, June 13, 2022, Mr Blay said there are private conversations amongst the top hierarchy of the party to see how they can unite the duo to defeat the opposition NDC during the elections.
In his view, even though the other aspirants vying for the position have the capabilities to secure victory for the party, a Bawumia-Alan ticket would be the best bet for the NPP to retain power.
In an exclusive interview on the Oyerepa Breakfast Time hosted by Kwesi Parker-Wilson, Mr Blay said: “almost all the candidates are capable of beating John Mahama in 2024. But I am thinking of a combination of two of them (Alan-Bawumia). I would prefer an Alan and Bawumia combination that won’t be bad, it may do the trick for us.”
“We’ve been indirectly in our private moments been discussing how to unite Alan and Bawumia. Left to me, a combination will be the best for our party. It will bring total unity as we desire,” he said.
He also added that “he hasn’t personally told them, but his desire would be the two uniting for victory in 2024.”
Mr Blay becomes the second influential person in the party pushing for an Alan-Bawumia ticket after former communications director of the party, Nana Akomea publicly asked the NPP to see how best they can unite Vice President Dr Mahumudu Bawumia and Trades Minister Alan Kyerematen.

SPLENDID COMBINATION!
But you think the Incompetent One will come back! After letting us stay in darkness for over four years! Think again! Ghanaians are wise oo oga!
You can even decide on Elijah/Jesus ticket you’re going to lose the 2024 election. Who will vote for this mediocrity? Ghanaians are fed up with politicians. Ghanaians are looking for complete overhaul of the 1992 constitution which has brought the nation on her knees. If NPP is able to obtain 40% of the total votes, you will thank your stars. Ghanaians will embarrass NPP in 2024. Instead of you thinking about how you can fix the lame economy, you’re busy talking about Bawumia/Allan ticket. Freddie Blay has gotten so much from GNPC so he’s stepping down to go and enjoy his stolen wealth.
That would be the best ever thought-through strategy to break the eight-year term and even set the sixteen-year term record. You see, the propaganda nature of the NDC has put the NPP in pole position, and its flagship projects are relegated to the background, so that its successes will send shivers down the spines of the NDC, because they have nothing to offer, except exaggerated diabolic propaganda. Thus, the benefits of the flagship projects, 1D1F, planting for food, and FSHS, to mention only a few, might have matured for Ghanaians to feel it in their pockets. Then, the propaganda politics of the NDC is today about national cathedra and tomorrow, presidential chartered-jet travel, is all about creating falsehoods for propaganda purposes. What the NDC would do better in terms of policy to proffer an alternative solution is regrettably lost in the thin air.
