Dr. Bawumia hits NDC hard in Kumawu with these two….

Vice President Mahamudu Bawumia has used Dumsor and Ghana fowl that escaped to Burkina Faso to round up his campaign at the final rally of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) in the Kumawu Constituency in the Ashanti Region. Pointing out some of the drama that happened during the time of the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC), Dr. Bawumia pointed out ‘dumsor, as one of the reasons the NPP faithful must reject the NDC in Kumawu. According to the Vice President, “The NDC is roaming about that we should vote for the NDC candidate, do they think that we have forgotten about them or that we don’t think? He asked “Do you remember that during the NDC era, we slept in dumsor, for four years; is that not the case? Do you want us to go back to dumsor again? Or you want him to go and bring back the missing guinea fowls that escaped to Burkina Faso? During their time in office, the NDC established two factories, just two. We have established over 150”. Voters in Kumawu will elect a replacement for their Member of Parliament, Philip Atta Basoah, who died on 27th March this year while still serving his 3rd consecutive term. Ernest Yaw Anim , is representing the New Patriotic Party (NPP) whiles Kwasi Amankwaa is the NDC candidate. There are two independent candidates with the same name Kwaku Duah also battling to be elected.

Kumawu by-election: Bawumia’s dabble in ‘cheap’ guinea-fowl politics shows how ‘low’ he’s sunk – NDC

The National Democratic Congress has said Vice President Mahamudu Bawumia’s recent comment  that “guinea fowls flew to Burkina Faso under John Mahama” during one of his campaign tours in the lead-up to the Kumawu by-election slated for today, Tuesday, 23 May 2023, “is nothing but a deliberately contrived lie” that he and his ilk “continue to rehash”. “That the Vice President will continue to dabble in this cheap spin reveals how low he has descended”, a statement from the biggest opposition party signed by national communications officer Sammy Gyamfi said.     “Indeed”, the statement noted, “it is noteworthy to remind Bawumia and his likes that Manasseh Azuri Awuni, the journalist who investigated the guinea fowl production and marketing joint venture project by the Savanna Accelerated Development Authority (SADA) and the Asongtaba Cottage Industry, is on public record to have refuted this claim”.   Factories: Bawumia’s ‘NDC 2, NPP 150’ claim ‘barefaced lie’, NDC says VP must cure ‘own ignorance’ on ‘poor 1D1F’   At the same Kumawu campaign event, Dr Bawumia also said the Mahama administration built only two factories against the Akufo-Addo government’s 150. In the same statement, the NDC described the claim as “a barefaced lie”. “For the records”, the statement added, “the erstwhile NDC/Mahama administration established strategic, high-priority state-owned factories that anchored growth in key sectors of the Ghanaian economy”. “We must hasten to point out to the Vice President that if his so-called 150 factories claim relates to government’s poorly-implemented 1D1F programme, then he needs to educate himself and cure his own ignorance about the nature of their so-called 1D1F initiative”. “This is because none of the said 1D1F factories was actually built by the Akufo-Addo/Bawumia government”. —Classfm—

Mr. Michael Omari Wadie, the immediate past third national vice chairman of the governing New Patriotic Party (NPP), is of the view that the 2024 presidential election will be a contest between Vice President Mahamudu Bawumia, who he considers as a competent prospect; and former President John Mahama, an incompetent politician. He explained “It is going to be a contest between the Vice President, Dr. Mahamadu Bawumia, who is ‘The Competent One’ and former President John Dramani Mahama, who is also ‘The Incompetent One’, He further explained on Tuesday, 18 April 2023, that the contest would be between the two politicians, who are both eyeing the presidency, and no other aspirants. According to hm, while Dr. Bawumia is incorruptible, the same cannot be said of Mr. Mahama. He said Dr. Bawumia is NPP‘s surest bet for victory as the majority of the party’s support base is clamouring for his appearance on the ballot paper as the flag bearer. “I have been to all 270 constituencies across the country and the chorus is: ‘Let Dr. Bawumia come and we will come out in our numbers to vote for him and the party to break the eight-year political jinx’.

Kenya borrows Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia’s newborn I.D digitalization ideas completely

In 2021, Ghana’s Vice President Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia announced, that barring any unforeseen circumstances, every newborn child delivered in Ghana next year will get, within a few months, a Ghanacard number. Apexnewsgh report According to Vice President, the actual card will be issued when the child is grown and the biometrics are fully formed (after age 6). Dr. Bawumia said the move forms part of the digital reforms being undertaken at the Births and Deaths Registry to make it more in tune with the times and provide better protect information on the citizens and residents of Ghana. However, after two years of that announcement by Ghana’s Vice President Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, it appears the Kenyan government has emulated the idea of Ghana’s Vice President in that direction. On Monday, February 6, 2023, Cabinet Secretary Kithure Kindiki made a similar announcement that the Interior Ministry will be digitizing birth and death records starting March 1, 2023. He said, all children born in Kenya will soon be assigned a unique identification number at birth that will later be used in school and eventually become their national identity number. He added, newborns, will soon be assigned a Unique Personal Identifier (UPI) at birth. This will later become the individual’s national ID, social security number, health insurance number and eventually the death certificate number. “It will be their Nemis (National Education Management Information System) number in school. When they turn 18, it will be the ID, NHIF, NSSF and will be the number of your death certificate,” he said, adding that Kenya is now transitioning to a smart ID system. “In the period between the time the UPI is introduced and 18 years later when it will transit into the ID, the Ministry is working on introduction of the Third-Generation, smart and digital ID,” Cabinet Secretary Kithure Kindiki stressed For publication please kindly contact us on +233256336062 or Email apexnewsgh@gmail.com
