Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, the New Patriotic Party (NPP) Presidential Candidate, has countered National Democratic Congress (NDC) flagbearer John Dramani Mahama’s recent call for a “reset” of Ghana.
During the NDC’s Manifesto launch, Mahama urged voters to support him to “reset” the nation, claiming that Ghana is in distress and crying out for change.
In response, Dr. Bawumia, during a media engagement on Sunday, August 25, asserted that what Ghana truly needs is an upgrade rather than a reset. He emphasized that his vision involves enhancing and advancing the country rather than starting over.
Bawumia outlined 14 key commitments he plans to implement if elected in 2024, which include creating new jobs, transforming Ghana into a leading digital economy, reducing living costs, expanding public infrastructure, and improving healthcare. His plans also include promoting affirmative action for women and girls, ensuring good governance, caring for the elderly, and enhancing educational opportunities, all while maintaining national security and safety.
“I represent the future, Ghana needs an upgrade, not a reset. I have also outlined my 14 key commitments to the Ghanaian people. These are to sustain and expand Ghana’s rebounding economy, create new jobs, implement wide-ranging tax reforms, and build Ghana into a world-class digital economy.
“Reduce the cost of living, expand public infrastructure, provide better healthcare for all, Implement Affirmative Action for girls and women, provide good governance, care for the elderly, and expand educational opportunities for all. Protect our borders while keeping our neighbourhood safe.”
