A constituent of Tamale Central in the Northern Region has emphasized the importance of the Flagbearer of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, to the development of Ghana.

According to him, the country cannot achieve significant growth without the involvement of Dr. Bawumia, whom he sees as a visionary leader with tremendous wisdom and foresight.

Speaking during a community manifesto programme organized by TV3 in Tamale, the constituent, in a video shared on the social media platform X (formerly Twitter), praised Dr. Bawumia for his innovative programmes, particularly his digitalization drive, which has made many electronic transactions stress-free and convenient.

"A country without Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia is like a body without a soul. If not for Dr. Bawumia, this country would have been subjected to a state of melancholy. I am challenging Murtala [MP for Tamale Central] to mention one social intervention the NDC has implemented in the history of Ghana. I am throwing that challenge to him."

The constituent also commended the Tamale Metropolitan Chief Executive, Sulley Salifu, for executing numerous development projects in Tamale, particularly his lighting projects, which have ensured that the city is well illuminated and have also enhanced security in the area.

Ghanaians will vote on December 7, 2024 to elect a president and 275 Parliamentarians to help govern the country for the next four years.

Political analysts say the contest is a two-horse race between the New Patriotic Party (NPP) and the National Democratic Congress (NDC) despite the involvement of two independent candidates - Alan Kyerematen and Nana Kwame Bediako.
