\n
\n\t\t\t\t\tPresident Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo has urged Ghanaians not to vote for John Dramani Mahama and the National Democratic Congress (NDC) in the upcoming December elections, warning that doing so would reverse Ghana\u2019s progress. He argued that Mahama and the NDC offer no fresh ideas or innovative policies to tackle Ghana\u2019s current issues.\n\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n
\n\t\t\t\t\tSpeaking to chiefs and elders in the Western North Region, President Akufo-Addo highlighted Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, the ruling party\u2019s presidential candidate, as a symbol of renewed hope and growth for Ghana. He described Dr. Bawumia as a forward-thinking leader capable of advancing modernization and economic development, contrasting this with what he portrayed as stagnation under previous NDC administrations.\n\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n
\n\t\t\t\t\tPresident Akufo-Addo also recalled the collapse of Kumasi Brewery under Mahama\u2019s leadership, challenging the NDC\u2019s vision of implementing a 24-hour economy. He remarked, \u201cYou want to implement a 24-hour economy, but the one you inherited, you couldn\u2019t manage. Let us not make the mistake of going backward. Let us support Bawumia to lead Ghana to new heights.\u201d\n\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
