Is Dr. Bawumia homeless?

Grapevine reports that many leaders in the NPP oppose Dr. Bawumia's candidacy. However, he has strong support from his godfather, Ex-President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo. This endorsement is significant for Bawumia's campaign.

Recently, Dr. Bawumia has distanced himself from his godfather’s failures. He also claims credit for successes during Akufo-Addo's presidency. This move may be strategic to improve his image and chances of winning.

Some doubt whether grassroots supporters see him as a true NPP member. The New Patriotic Party traditionally favors Akans, which complicates Bawumia’s position. His ties to the party may weaken after distancing himself from Akufo-Addo.

Dr. Bawumia is preparing for another run at the presidential nomination. He faces tough competition from popular figures like Kennedy Agyapong and Dr. Mathew Opoku Prempeh, who hasn't declared yet.

Bawumia's challenges include losing access to state resources and support without Akufo-Addo’s influence. To succeed, he needs to find a new powerful ally or "godfather." The question remains: whose support will he seek?
