His running mate, Dr. Matthew Opoku Prempeh, and his spouse, Alma Pokua Adade-Prempeh, were also with him. Samira Bawumia is his wife.
Party officials are also present at the EC to offer support and solidarity. These individuals include Majority Leader Alexander Afenyo-Markin, General Secretary Justin Koduah Frimpong, National Chairman Stephen Ntim, and other prominent NPP members.
