Vice president and flagbearer of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), Dr Mahamudu Bawumia, is calling on Ghanaians to vote him as the substantive president of Ghana to usher the country to the digital age.

According him, a vote for him would allow Ghana to quickly adopt and catch up with the Western world in digital advancements, a dream he fears may not be accomplished should Ghanaians vote for John Dramani Mahama.

The vice president believes that the National Democratic Congress’s candidate, John Dramani Mahama, cannot bring about any positive change to the country.

“Ghana is going into the digitalisation age, not the ‘akonfem ‘age. Vote for me so that we can also learn from the Europeans to develop our nation. We are bringing new policies. Do you think their flagbearer can be a president for just four years? He’s also seeking for honeymoon, meaning he won’t do anything,” he said in a report on citinewsroom.com

Dr Bawumia added that, unlike Mahama, who cannot go for another term after four years should he win the December 7, 2024 general elections, he can, and therefore, he will be compelled to do his very best for the country to ensure he wins a second term.

He said, “However, I want to be president for eight years meaning I’ll come back to make accountability after my first term. He [Mahama] won’t come back to make accountability Ghana needs a new president with new ideas with integrity.”
