President Akufo-Addo has reaffirmed his full trust in Vice President Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, praising him as a capable and well-prepared leader ready to lead Ghana towards greater success.

The President urged the people of Ghana to unite behind Dr. Bawumia’s presidential campaign, emphasizing his wealth of experience and his clear vision for the country’s progress.

Speaking to professional groups in Kumasi on Sunday, November 24, Akufo-Addo stressed the importance of the Ashanti Region in securing victory for the New Patriotic Party (NPP).

He appealed to the region not to repeat the 2008 scenario, when the NPP lost power, and to fully support Dr. Bawumia in the 2024 elections.

“We have two candidates in this race: one, a failed former president, and the other, Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia. In Ghana’s history, four individuals have had the privilege to lead as presidents—Jerry John Rawlings, John Agyekum Kufuor, John Dramani Mahama, and myself. Among us, only John Mahama was denied a second term, and the reason is clear—he performed poorly,” the President remarked.
