In a startling revelation that has rocked the New Patriotic Party (NPP), Hopeson Adorye, a former member of the party, has accused Vice President Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia of being a drunkard.
Hopeson Adorye’s claims were aired during an interview with TV XYZ, where he released a video purportedly showing Bawumia walking unsteadily, which Adorye used as evidence to support his allegations.
His accusations are particularly explosive given the context of Bawumia’s religious background. As a Muslim, Bawumia is expected to adhere to Islamic prohibitions against alcohol consumption.
Hopeson Adorye, however, claims that during his time within the NPP, he and other party members suggested that Bawumia should consume wine to improve his public speaking stamina.
According to Adorye, Bawumia disregarded this advice and instead chose to drink whiskey, which he alleges has led to Bawumia’s current state of inebriation.
This revelation comes in stark contrast to the previous allegations made by Adorye against former President John Dramani Mahama. Hopeson Adorye confessed that the claims he made about Mahama being a drunkard were fabricated as part of a smear campaign against Mahama during his tenure with the NPP. According to him, these accusations were intended solely to discredit Mahama and undermine his political credibility.
Hopeson Adorye’s admission and his allegations against Bawumia are expected to intensify the already heated political climate in Ghana. The NPP has yet to respond to these allegations, and it remains to be seen how this internal discord will affect the party’s unity and public perception.
As the political landscape continues to shift, the public and party loyalists alike will be closely watching for further developments in this unfolding controversy.
