Accra, August 25, 2026 : The newly elected Upper West Regional Executives of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) have paid a courtesy call on the party’s 2028 flagbearer, Alhaji Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, in Accra.
The visit, held on Tuesday, August 25, 2026, marked the executives’ maiden official engagement following their election at the party’s regional elections in Wa on Saturday, August 15.
