The President of the Bono Regional House of Chiefs and the Omanhene of the Dormaa Traditional Area have advised the presidential candidate of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, to choose his running mate from the Bono Region or the Bono East Region.
Osagyefo Oseadeayo Agyemang Badu II warned the region would not support his candidature should he select the running mate from other regions.
He made the appeal when the Vice President paid a courtesy call to the Bono Regional House of Chiefs in Sunyani as part of his regional tour.
The traditional ruler suggested Martin Adjei Korsah, Ignatius Baffour Awuah, Kwaku Agyemang Manu, and Mahama Afful as some of the people he could select his running mate from.
“Your Excellency, I understand that you will choose your running mate soon. I haven’t heard if you’ve chosen either.There are many individuals in most of the regions, but if you are not attentive and only focus on a few, they will vote for you while the rest of us will vote against you.
“I request that the Bono region be remembered, Your Excellency…I see you have come here with regional sons,” he said.
“We in the Bono region, particularly Bono East, are interested in your running companion…I understand if it goes somewhere, but I will be grateful if it comes here,” he added.
