Member of Parliament for New Juaben South Constituency and Deputy Minister of Trade and Industry, Michael Okyere Baafi says Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia's vision for the country is a real economic revolution that will propel businesses to greater heights and open Ghana's economy.
He says the 'New Chapter' as delivered by the Vice President will turn around the fortunes of the country and its people.
According to him, the digitalization agenda being championed by Dr. Bawumia will be a game-changer in Ghana's economic transformation.
Addressing a section of journalists in Koforidua over the weekend, Mr. Michael Okyere Baafi asserted that the difference between Dr. Bawumia and former President John Mahama is that, the former is a future driven leader whiles the latter is not.
He added that, future-oriented leaders have an intuitive ability to identify opportunities in the face of uncertainty.
According to Mr. Okyere Baafi, Dr. Bawumia's sophisticated plans are in sync with the country's long-term goals.
He said the proposed tax amnesty aimed at cleaning the slates for defaulting businesses in Ghana will further inject energy into businesses and create more employment.
"As a Deputy Minister of Trade and Industry, I encounter lots of business people on daily and weekly basis. I can tell you as a matter of fact that, many companies are struggling to pay taxes, some defaulting companies risk being hauled to the court and all that. This proposed tax amnesty will save many businesses in Ghana,' Mr. Okyere Baafi disclosed.
He added that the digitalization agenda, coupled with the various incentives for business will ensure a prosperous Ghana for all.
He urged his constituents to support the 2024 NPP flagbearer to secure victory in this year's election so as to enable him open the 'New Chapter' of prosperity for all.
Mr. Okyere Baafi believes that giving Dr. Bawumia an opportunity to lead Ghana would be in the best interest of the country.
"I know Dr. Bawumia, I've listened to him, we have had several engagements and I'm telling you that this man is passionate about Ghana. He will take us to the next level. Let's give him the legitimate power to deliver," Mr Okyere Baafi appealed.
