The Vice President and presidential candidate of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, has highlighted his new ‘Buy Ghana First’ policy, which he intends to implement if he is elected as president in the upcoming elections.
Speaking to the community stakeholders of the Okaikoi Central Constituency in Accra on Wednesday, September 4, 2024, Dr. Bawumia stated that the policy will garner support and patronage for local industries and the private sector, if implemented successfully.
Dr. Bawumia said: “I hear we are currently buying school uniforms from China. That will not happen under the ‘Buy Ghana First’ policy.
“We will also ensure that furniture for schools are not imported from other countries.”
“Whatever we can buy from Ghana, we will buy them here to help boost our local industries, the private sector and create more jobs for our people.”
The NPP flagbearer explained his vision and policies to the audience, made up of the clergy, imams, traditional rulers, traders, and community members.
