The vice-president, Dr Mahamudu Bawumia, has declared that he has his own vision for Ghana, which is to see the country leverage technology, data and systems for inclusive economic growth.
The vice-president is seeking to lead the New Patriotic Party (NPP) as its flagbearer in the 2024 general election.
Addressing party supporters after filing his presidential nomination forms at the NPP headquarters on Friday (16 June 2023), Bawumia said he has worked hard in both private and public life to attain the position he occupies.
He said although he served in various capacities under the former president John Agyekum Kufuor, including being the deputy governor of the Bank of Ghana, and subsequently as vice-president, he has his own vision for the country.
“I also have my own vision for Ghana. I believe that it is time to move Ghana to the next level by building on the foundations we have put in place so far,” Bawumia said.
“Together with you, I want to see a Ghana where we leverage technology, data and systems for inclusive economic growth. I want to make Ghana the digital hub of Africa. I want us to bridge the digital divide and apply digital technology and artificial intelligence for the transformation of health care, education and public service delivery, among others.”
Loyalty
Although he offered a vivid description of his desire to see Ghana become a nation that caters for the poor, supports local businesses and builds industries for economic growth, he acknowledged that there is much more the nation can do to attain the status it desires.
“Over the last 22 years, I have worked hard with you for the NPP and for Ghana, from during the Kufuor era as deputy governor of the Bank of Ghana, through our years in opposition and now in government.
“During this period, I have sacrificed for the party, I have defended the party in good times and in challenging times, I have never wavered nor slacked. Never! And I have built a solid track record of performance as vice-president and unflinching loyalty to our party and government through rain or shine,” Dr Bawumia said.
