Quotes

  • ‘I don’t want to sound bias but I think the future of this country lies with the NPP. When it comes to development, when it comes to taking this country forward, I don’t think there is an alternative and Mahamadu Bawumia is a gem. [I mean], we need to look at not just the party but the personalities that are leading’.
  • It is about presidency and if you want to compare, so far, I think we have we have two out, so we have John Dramani Mahama and then we have Mahamudu Bawumia and with the two, I can assure you not because I am a member of the NPP, that the person who can take us to the next stage of development, where we want to be is no other than Mahamadu Bawumia and I have a good feeling about it that the NPP will be retained in power
