The NPP presidential candidate, Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, has assured Ghanaians that he will protect the public purse from mismanagement if elected in the upcoming December polls.

Addressing the youth at a job fair on Sunday, November 3, 2024, Dr. Bawumia urged Ghanaians to trust him to safeguard and utilize the public purse selflessly in the country's interest, emphasizing the importance of not allowing it to be eroded.

He stressed the necessity of giving him the opportunity to showcase his capabilities for the country's development.

“I will tell you why we are all not the same and cannot be the same. I am not John Mahama; he is a former vice president and president. I am a vice president who has never been president before and am asking you for the opportunity to lead and show what I can do if offered the chance this December.

“You can trust me to protect the public purse and use it selflessly to serve you,” he said.

Dr. Bawumia further urged Ghanaians, particularly the youth, to vote for a candidate who can deliver on promises and possesses the qualities needed to be a strong and effective leader capable of bringing about positive and impactful change in their lives.

“To the young voters of Ghana, I say to you: do not switch off. I ask you to get involved. December is about you; it’s about who can deliver for you and your future—whom you trust, who has the integrity, vision, energy, competence, and sense of where the world is today, your place in it, and who has the humility to serve you and the decency not to insult you,” Dr. Bawumia urged.
