"The reason why I want to become President is that I’ve worked so hard as a Vice President. My work speaks for itself. If you compare the various Vice Presidents under the Fourth Republic, you can tell that my work rate stands out," he declared to a charged crowd.

Dr. Bawumia highlighted his track record by challenging former Vice President and current presidential candidate John Mahama. "If you ask John Mahama to point out even one policy initiative he spearheaded as Vice President, he can’t point out. I have 33 policies I’ve spearheaded. So the score is 33-0. So please promote me to become president because I’ve passed as Vice President," he said.

"I stand to be more accountable for my actions since I will still need the people of Ghana when I seek their mandate in 2028. Therefore, it is best to vote for someone who will be accountable than someone who has asked for a honeymoon even though he has just four years to be president."
