    Oh how true that true leaders always declare themselves without making any announcements. It becomes obvious. Ghana and Africa are fortunate to have a great son in the person of Dr Bawumia. I am very proud of this man. He is always a delight to watch and listen to!

      Dr Mahamudu Bawumia is a scholar of high repute. I love people with brains.
      He seems to have grasps of the myriads of challenges bedeviling African economies. I do hope that Ghanians would give him the opportunity at the helms to help transform their society.

    After listening to Dr.Mahmoud Bawumia I can boldly say with all due respect that since independence there has never risen in our land Ghana any leader so endowed with knowledge, vision, commitment, competence, sense of purpose and direction to change or transform the course of our land and bring us and our children and youth into the path of economic and social freedom. NPP delegates would therefore do Ghana and their children and youth great, great injustice if they do not vote for Dr.Mahmoud Bawumia to become the flagbearer of NPP in the 2024 elections.

      He has the knowledge, vision, sense of purpose and direction to transform Ghana if he gains the nod from NPP delegates and Ghanaians at large. Bear in mind that, vice presidency in Ghana is ceremonial; he acts based on the functions his boss assign to him and therefore he can’t take any major decisions in government unless the president pave the way for him to do so. Thanks

There is an African who created an Airplane and car only using Energy being harnessed by Radio waves! I believe we should protect our Brilliant Minds and do like you said about Investing in our Future with our Children's mind and receiving God's Gifts that are given to us through these Wonderful Mind's. Let's Harness wat God has given them and We won't have too spend billions of dollars on Energy when The MOST HIGH GIVES US BLESSINGS LIKE THESE MIND'S!

    We pray Bawumia delays his Presidency aim so we can use him more in what he is good at in the area of digitalisation for Ghana and Africa as a whole for the next 4 to five years. That is why I have suggested NPP to adapt Ken to enhance the economic Leadership to Business Administration in the next five years. Where as Bawumia remains in his area as the best Vice President to handle what he is best to achieve for Ghana then we could bring Him on to make Ghana as one of the greatest in Africa. Think about this great idea for Ghana. Thanks
