“The best gift Akufo-Addo has given to Northerners which he would forever be remembered with is discovering Dr Bawumia for Ghanaians.” Explaining the motive behind his pronouncement, the founder and leader of NLC revealed that,” No President apart from Akufo-Addo has been able to complete his 8 years term with his running mate.
According to him ‘Rawlings fell out with late Vice President Ekow Akaa, Kuffour fell out with Aliu Mahama, John Dramani Mahama also fell out with late Amissah Arthur.
He stressed that all these fallouts came because of betrayal but Dr Bawumia has been extremely faithful thereby proving to be a perpetual asset for the nation.
On a question by the host, Agya Wusu that the opposition National Democratic(NDC) has labelled Dr Bawumia as the worst Vice president with regards to the current economic hardship, the Outspoken former member of the NDC said:
“NDC has no moral right to say that against Bawumia because every government face challenges, there was also ‘Dumsor’ during their era so they can’t use the current situation against Bawumia”.
