The New Patriotic Party’s (NPP) presidential candidate, Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, pledged to safeguard the public purse from mismanagement if he is elected in the December elections.During a job fair on Sunday, November 3, 2024, he appealed to Ghanaians, particularly the youth, to place their trust in him.

Bawumia highlighted the crucial need to use public funds responsibly for the nation's benefit and encouraged voters to provide him the opportunity to prove his capability in advancing the country's development.“I will tell you why we are all not the same and cannot be the same. I am not John Mahama; he is a former vice president and president.

I am a vice president who has never been president before and am asking you for the opportunity to lead and show what I can do if offered the chance this December.“You can trust me to protect the public purse and use it selflessly to serve you,” he said.Dr. Bawumia emphasized the importance of voting for a candidate who not only makes promises but also has the qualities necessary for effective leadership.

He urged Ghanaians, especially the youth, to choose a leader who can bring about meaningful and positive changes in their lives.“To the young voters of Ghana, I say to you: do not switch off. I ask you to get involved.

December is about you; it’s about who can deliver for you and your future—whom you trust, who has the integrity, vision, energy, competence, and sense of where the world is today, your place in it, and who has the humility to serve you and the decency not to insult you,” Dr. Bawumia urged.
