Former Member of Parliament for Adansi Asokwa, K.T. Hammond, has cautioned that Ghanaians could be faced with severe hardship if former Vice President Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia does not emerge victorious in the 2028 presidential elections.
Hammond’s remarks came as he spoke during Dr. Bawumia’s campaign tour of the Ashanti Region on September 10.
Expressing unwavering confidence in Dr. Bawumia’s leadership, Hammond praised the former vice president as a competent and hardworking leader who is well equipped to manage the country’s affairs if given the mandate. He urged voters to look beyond religious lines and focus on the qualities that matter most for national progress.
Addressing criticisms rooted in Dr. Bawumia’s faith, Hammond dismissed suggestions that he could not be president because he is a Muslim, calling such claims “madness.”
“Have you monitored Bawumia’s capabilities and hard work? It’s madness to say Bawumia is a Muslim, so he can’t be President. We will suffer if Bawumia is not elected as President,” Hammond declared passionately.
He appealed to Ghanaians to set aside religious bias and instead prioritize competence and dedication when choosing the nation’s next leader, insisting that performance—not faith—should be the standard for leadership.
