Vice President of policy think tank, IMANI Africa, Kofi Bentil, has orated that Vice President Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia is the best contender to lead the New Patriotic Party (NPP) after President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo’s tenure.
Although Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia has not shown any signs of contending for the NPP’s flagbearership, Kofi Bentil is confident that he (Bawumia) will make a good leader.
Seemingly impressed by Dr Mahamadu’s strides as Akufo-Addo’s running mate, the private legal practitioner declared, “On my own assessment I believe presently if you look across the political scene the best person to take over after President Nana Addo will be Mahamudu Bawumia.”

Quizzed on whether Dr. Bawumia will have his vote should in case he makes his next political ambitions clear, he (Bentil) affirmed, “If he continues the way he is going. If he continues to give me the confidence he gives me, I might vote for him.”
