Reject Mahama’s Return To Power – Bawumia | Politics

The flagbearer of the ruling New Patriotic Party (NPP), Vice President Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, has cautioned Ghanaians against returning former President John Dramani Mahama to power, citing his abysmal performance during his tenure.

Speaking during his constituency-focused nationwide campaign tour in the Eastern Region, Dr. Bawumia highlighted that Mahama only fulfilled a mere 28% of his campaign promises as President, despite the absence of any major global economic crises during his presidency.

“Ghanaians don’t need to go back to a leader who woefully failed and only fulfilled 28% of his promises as President,” Dr. Bawumia emphasized during the tour at Nsawam-Adoagyiri, Ayensuano and Suhum constituencies on Saturday.

“We have faced unprecedented global economic challenges, but our government has made significant strides in fulfilling its campaign promises,” he said while engaging chiefs, heads of religious bodies and a cross-section of society in the constituencies.

Dr. Bawumia’s comments come as ex-President Mahama seeks to return to power in the upcoming elections, holding the flag of the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC).

In a follow-up to his earlier statement, the NPP flagbearer took to his Facebook page to reiterate the need for fresh leadership in Ghana. He emphasized that the country requires a new leader with innovative ideas and a bold vision for the future.

“Ghana needs a new leader with fresh and innovative ideas and a mindset to craft and implement bold solutions for the future,” the flagbearer posted.

This statement reinforces his earlier criticism of former President Mahama’s leadership, which he described as woefully inadequate.

“We don’t need to go back to a leader who woefully failed and only fulfilled 28% of his promises as President, even in the absence of the sort of global economic crisis we have faced recently. Let’s look forward and not backward,” he stressed.

For the NPP flagbearer, Ghana deserves better, and it is time for a new generation of leaders to take the reins.
