Dr. Yaw Osei Adutwum, a flagbearer hopeful of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), has cast his ballot at St. George’s Catholic School in Bosomtwe Constituency, expressing confidence that delegates will vote in his favour.
Speaking to journalists after voting, Dr. Adutwum referenced the late Sir John’s oft-quoted admonition to “fear delegates,” but said he remained optimistic due to his long years of service to the people of Bosomtwe.
“Even though Sir John cautioned us to fear delegates, I cannot relate to that in my case,” he said. “These delegates are my own people. I have served them well, and I believe they will reciprocate by supporting my aspiration to move up.”
He expressed hope that delegates would acknowledge his service to the constituency and back his bid to become the party’s flagbearer.
Brimming with confidence, Dr. Adutwum also expressed satisfaction with the conduct of the polls, describing the process as peaceful and well organised.
He further described the occasion as historic, noting that Bosomtwe was making history as it was the first time an indigene of the area had contested to become President of Ghana.
“This is a historic moment for us, and I am excited that this day has finally come,” he said. “Growing up, if someone had told me that I would one day contest at this level within the New Patriotic Party, I would not have believed it. But today, here I am.”
