Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia
Vice President Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, has told delegates that he is the only aspirant with presidential experience amongst the other three aspirants vying to lead the New Patriotic Party (NPP) in the 2024 general elections.
“The November 4 election is a presidential election and when you look amongst we the four aspirants, I’m the only aspirant with presidential experience. I have experienced presidential elections four times,” he stated.
According to him, he has toured and campaigned in the entire 275 constituencies across the country.
He indicated that he has won two elections, both 2016 and 2020, for the New Patriotic Party, making him the best candidate to lead the party in the 2024 general elections.
Addressing party supporters at Mion during his tour of the Northern Region, Dr. Bawumia disclosed that he would beat John Dramani Mahama in the 2024 general elections with experience should delegates vote for him to lead the party.
“I will beat John Mahama in 2024 because I know him and we have beaten him twice, so it won’t be a problem beating him in 2024,” he pointed out.
Dr. Bawumia stated that his track record as Vice President is unmatched.
“Everybody can agree that from Nkrumah till date, no Vice President has a track record than Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia. I introduced Ghana Card, No Guarantor Student Loan, Digital Address System, Mobile Money Interoperability, One Constituency One Ambulance, Agenda 111, Zipline Drones among other policies,” he stressed.
The Vice President told delegates that should they elect him as the presidential candidate for the NPP, he will introduce more policies to transform the country.
Vice President Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, MP for Assin Central Kennedy Agyapong, former Minister of Agriculture Dr. Owusu Afriyie Akoto, and former MP for Mampong Francis Addai-Nimoh are aspiring to lead the NPP in the 2024 general elections.
On November 4, 2023, about 200,000 delegates of the New Patriotic Party will cast their vote to elect a presidential candidate for the 2024 general elections.
