The New Patriotic Party (NPP) is cruising towards an electoral victory in the Kumawu bye-election.

The victory per the various polling station results so far gathered points to an emphatic one.

The NPP once again could not win the Benevolent Islamic Basic School polling station, a polling station that is dominated by people from the Muslim community.

It must be noted that the Vice President’s campaign team has been making the point that the party will surely sweep the votes in the Muslim and the ZONGO communities.

The Kumawu bye-election was a test case for the Vice President, Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, to make the point that when he is allowed to lead the party’s campaign activities in the Muslim and ZONGO communities because of his background as a Muslim and a northerner, the NPP will win in these areas.

The results from the Benevolent Islamic Basic School, therefore must be a humbling one as the NPP could not win the polling station dominated by Muslims in the Kumawu constituency.

The results from the said polling station are as follows:

PP:60

NDC: 253

IND: 23

IND: 1

Rejected: 3

340/524….64.88% turnout

With this, many political watchers are asking the Vice President whether he can lead the NPP to garner the much much-needed to aid them in winning the 2024 General Election.
