Former President John Agyekum Kufuor has appealed to Ghanaians to support Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia in the December elections, expressing confidence in his leadership to drive the nation’s progress.

During a live broadcast with top journalists, Kufuor responded to a question from Kwame Adinkra of Pure FM about why he believes Bawumia is the right choice for Ghana’s presidency.

Speaking calmly but with conviction, Kufuor praised Bawumia’s achievements as an economist and his tenure as Vice President under Nana Akufo-Addo’s administration.

“Dr. Bawumia’s understanding of economics and his innovative policies have made him stand out. His leadership ideologies align with the aspirations of every Ghanaian. I firmly believe he has what it takes to elevate this country,” Kufuor stated.

The former president clarified that his endorsement was entirely his own decision, not influenced by Bawumia.

Kufuor also urged Ghanaians to participate actively in the elections, stressing the importance of high voter turnout to ensure every voice is heard.

“He hasn’t made me a spokesperson or lobbied me to speak for him. My advice is grounded in my own observations of the political landscape and my faith in his abilities,” Kufuor explained.
