Samira Mobilizes Fulanis For NPP Fulanis in the Northern Region have thrown their
weight behind the flag bearer of the New Patriotic
Party (NPP), Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo, to
enhance his chance of winning the presidential
election on December 7.
According to them, they assisted the National
Democratic Congress (NDC) to win power in 2012 and
have decided to direct their focus on the NPP this
time round.
They indicated that the decision had been taken
based on motivation by Samira Bawumia, wife of the
vice presidential candidate of the NPP, Dr.
Mahamudu Bawumia. By their judgement, they claim
the NDC told them lies prior to the 2012
elections, adding that they have now realized the
truth.
This development happened at the campaign launch
of the NPP parliamentary candidate for Tamale
North Constituency, Hajia Kulsumi Mohammed.
Speaking to the media, the Chairman of the Fulani
Community in the Northern Region, Eliasu Dauda,
said it was the NDC that made them (Fulanis)
realize what voting is about after the party had
registered them.
He alleged that the NDC told them that if they
voted for the NPP to come into power, they would
be sacked from the region.
According to Mr Eliasu Dauda, as long as their
sister, mother and friend (Hajia Samira Bawumia)
is involved, they will vote for the NPP.
He stated that women have their children at heart
and urged the people of the Tamale North
Constituency to vote Hajia Kulsumi to become their
Member of Parliament on December 7.
Hajia Kulsumi Mohammed also urged the electorate
to vote massively for her and the NPP to bring
transformation into their lives.
She asserted that she is the only surviving female
candidate in Tamale, indicating that she would be
a mother for all. Source - Daily Guide
