Mahamudu Bawumia, the vice president, has announced his intention to vie for the position of the ruling New Patriotic Party’s flag bearer.
Today, Friday, June 16, 2023, in front of a crowd of party members in Accra, he said: “I believe that it is time to move Ghana to the next level by building on the foundations we have put in place so far.”
Together with you, I want to see a Ghana where technology, data, and systems are used to promote equitable economic growth, he remarked.
“I want to make Ghana the digital hub of Africa”, he noted.
“I want us to bridge the digital divide and apply digital technology and artificial intelligence for the transformation of healthcare, education, and public service delivery amongst others”, Dr Bawumia said.
“Over the last 22 years, I have worked hard with you for the NPP and for Ghana from during the Kufuor era as Deputy Governor of the Bank of Ghana, through our years in opposition and now in government” he stated.
“During this period, I have sacrificed for the party, I have defended the party in good times and in challenging times. I have never wavered nor slacked. Never! and I have built a solid track record of performance as vice president with an unflinching loyalty to our party and government through rain or shine”, Bawumia emphasized.
