The Ashanti Regional House of Chiefs states that the house accords a great deal of respect to the flagbearer of the governing New Patriotic Party (NPP), Dr. Mahamadu Bawumia.

"For the records, you are the first external dignitary, a non-member of the house or Asanteman, who is paying us a visit. Nananom, especially the queen mothers, were here before you. This shows the high esteem that we accord you and hold you," said the president of the Ashanti Regional House of Chiefs and paramount chief of Asante Mampong, Daasebre Otuo Serebour, in his welcome address.

Daasebre Osei Bonsu hailed the Vice-President and Flagbearer, Dr. Mahamadu Bawumia, for his dedication to the course of Asanteman.

He made this statement when Dr. Bawumia called on the House on Monday, June 10, 2024.

The visit with the Ashanti Regional House of Chiefs formed part of Dr. Bawumia's tour of the region to share his vision with chiefs and residents of the region.

The tour is also aimed at soliciting the support of the residents in his quest to become the next president of Ghana.

For his part, Dr. Mahamadu Bawumia expressed his gratitude to the chiefs for their support and prayers.

He used the occasion to elaborate extensively on his vision for the country.

He noted that he had lined up major policies and interventions that would lead to the exponential development of the country.

"My new policies in the areas of agriculture, mining, modern tax system, education, health systems, among others, will help Ghana achieve optimal development,” he stated.

He has, therefore, called on the chiefs to support and pray for him to win the 2024 polls.
