    Stop the nonsense. 'Northerner' is neither a tribe or ethnic group. There is a contest looming, and different persons can advance different reasons for the choice of the winner.

    Many people cautioned Bawumia that Ashantes will deny him despite his contribution to the success of the NPP simply because he is a Northerner, but he never believed it. He was in power, and they pretended. Now it is out.
