DR. BAWUMIA GAINS ENDORSEMENT FROM BONO EAST CHIEFS

Leaders in the Bono East region have urged constituents to lend their support to Vice President Mahamudu Bawumia, the presidential candidate for the New Patriotic Party (NPP), in his campaign for the presidency of Ghana.

The leaders expressed their appreciation for Bawumia’s outstanding service and highlighted the substantial achievements of the NPP government in advancing the nation, particularly in the areas of education, healthcare, and infrastructure.

Nana Dwomoh Ameyaw, the chief of Amoma in Kintampo South, commended the NPP for fulfilling its commitment to build the primary road connecting Amoma to the district capital, Jema.

He characterized the completion of this road as a significant benefit for the community, noting that it had previously been a considerable source of inconvenience for the residents.

We are lucky to have a vice president visiting our community for the first time; we are very excited about this.

The NPP government led by Nana Akufo-Addo and Bawumia has performed exceptionally well; if we will tell the truth, they have [done] very well.

Looking at the various schools, hospitals, and roads they have done across Ghana and the digitalization initiatives the vice president has masterminded, I can beat my chest and say, ‘No vice president can be compared to Bawumia.

Nana Dwomoh commended the implementation of the free Senior High School (SHS) initiative and the rejuvenation of the National Health Insurance Scheme (NHIS), both of which he claimed serve the interests of all Ghanaians.

In a humorous anecdote, he shared how the deteriorating state of the road had led to protests, especially among women, who raised concerns regarding its effects on marriage opportunities in the community.

He expressed appreciation to Bawumia for tackling the road issue and encouraged voters to back the NPP flag bearer to ensure the continuation of his beneficial efforts.

My people, especially the women, used to embark on [a] series of protests and demonstrations about the deplorable nature of the road.

They lamented that the bad nature of this road was one of the reasons men refused to come here and marry them, among other things.

Bawumia, while touring the region, underscored his dedication to placing agriculture at the forefront of his agenda should he be elected as president.

Agriculture is going to be my number [one] priority in Ghana. The success of agriculture is the success of the economy.

He presented a strategy aimed at decreasing Ghana’s dependence on imported agricultural inputs and food products by utilizing the nation’s natural resources, asserting,

If I become the president, we wouldn’t need to import inputs and food stuffs because we have the land, water and capabilities.

Bawumia committed to the establishment of mechanization centers in each district, thereby guaranteeing that farmers can access vital equipment necessary for their agricultural activities.

Furthermore, he assured the implementation of measures designed to reduce electricity expenses in Ghana, emphasizing his vision for sustainable economic development.
