Last
Saturday,
Ghana
legend
Asamoah
Gyan
joined
the
company
of
Vice
President
Dr.
Mahamudu
Bawumia
to
campaign
for
the
latter’s
presidential
bid.
The
soccer
star
hit
the
campaign
trail
with
Dr.
Bawumia
and
other
members
of
the
ruling
New
Patriotic
Party
(NPP)
in
Akropong
in
the
Eastern
Region.
The
NPP
and
its
flagbearer
embarked
on
a
health
walk
in
the
region,
which
was
attended
by
thousands
of
supporters
of
the
party.
Having
mounted
the
podium
to
address
the
attendees,
Gyan
used
the
opportunity
to
highlight
some
of
Dr.
Bawumia’s
plans
for
the
youth,
insisting
he
trusts
the
Vice
President
to
honour
his
promises
when
elected
as
president.
“I’ll
keep
my
message
very
short.
I
stand
for
the
youth.
I
was
speaking
to
the
Vice
President
this
morning
and
I
asked
him
what
he
has
for
the
youth,”
Gyan
said.
“It
was
a
one-on-one
meeting
but
I
have
to
come
out
and
say
it.
He
told
me
his
focus
is
mainly
on
the
youth.
So
I
told
him
to
help
the
youth
for
me
so
that
everything
would
fall
into
place.
“He
has
honoured
me
personally
by
allowing
me
to
chair
his
manifesto
committee
on
youth
and
sports.
If
he
has
done
that
for
me,
I’m
very
sure
he’ll
honour
his
promises
to
the
youth.
So
I
leave
7th
December
in
your
hands.”
Reacting
to
Asamoah
Gyan’s
public
support
for
Dr
Bawumia,
Kevin
Taylor
has
described
Asamoah
Gyan
as
a
charlatan
and
a
senseless
being.
According
to
Kevin
Taylor,
Asamoah
Gyan
is
a
dirty
guy
who’s
trying
to
influence
the
youths
to
vote
for
Dr
Bawumia.
While
ranting
on
the
most
recent
episode
of
his
Loud
Silence
Show,
Kevin
Taylor
vowed
to
expose
Asamoah
Gyan
if
he
doesn’t
stop
campaigning
for
Dr
Bawumia.
Kevin
Taylor
also
charged
the
masses
to
ask
Asamoah
Gyan
about
a
lady
called
Linda
Nana
Adwoa
and
insisted
that
he
should
have
been
jailed
5
years
ago.
The
NDC
stalwart
cautioned
Asamoah
Gyan
to
be
very
careful
for
picking
sides
with
Dr
Bawumia
because
he’ll
break
him.
