President Nana Akufo-Addo has once again expressed his unwavering trust in his Vice President and New Patriotic Party (NPP) flagbearer, Dr Mahamudu Bawumia.

He emphasized that throughout their political journey, Dr Bawumia has never deceived him, solidifying his confidence in Bawumia’s integrity and capability.

This statement was made in Kumasi, where the President urged voters to choose Dr Bawumia over former President John Dramani Mahama, whom he labelled as a failed leader seeking a return to power.

Highlighting Dr Bawumia's readiness for leadership, President Akufo-Addo stressed that he is the right person to lead Ghana forward.

He expressed his belief that Dr Bawumia possesses the qualities needed to continue the government’s work and achieve even greater success.

According to the President, Bawumia’s honesty and reliability make him the best candidate to lead the nation, having demonstrated a deep understanding of governance during their years of collaboration.

"This is a man who has never lied to me," Akufo-Addo declared, "and I trust him wholeheartedly. Ghanaians should also place their trust in him because he has shown time and again that he can deliver. Bawumia’s dedication to my vision and the development of Ghana is unquestionable, and I am confident he will continue to build on our progress."

The President called upon the electorate to recognise Bawumia's potential to drive Ghana’s development further.

This endorsement is not the first time President Akufo-Addo has praised his Vice President’s loyalty and competence.

During a visit to Wa in the Upper West Region in October this year, he lauded Dr Bawumia's unwavering dedication over nearly two decades of public service, including his role as Vice President.

He commended Bawumia's proven track record and urged Ghanaians to elect him in the 2024 general elections, describing him as a leader who embodies commitment, vision, and a profound understanding of the country’s needs.
