Samira Bawumia is the former Second Lady of Ghana
Former Second Lady, Samira Bawumia, has called on party supporters to rally strong support for former Vice President, Dr Mahamudu Bawumia, in his bid to lead the party again as its flagbearer.
Addressing a crowd of party supporters at a yet to be identified event, Samira Bawumia described her husband as a ‘good man’ who had served the nation’s interests diligently.
She asserted that his achievements and work ethic as vice president were unmatched by any of his predecessors in the country’s history.
“Let us support Dr Bawumia because he is a good man. He is the only vice president in Ghana’s history who worked very well for the country and served diligently,” she said in a video shared by Daily Graphic on Facebook.
Samira Bawumia also emphasised that Dr Bawumia has demonstrated both the competence and commitment necessary to serve the country dutifully, and therefore deserves the support required to realise and implement his visionary agenda for the nation.
“He served well and supported former President Akufo-Addo. He has done everything he needs to do and now the time has come for him to also implement his visionary ideas for the country,” she continued.
The former Second Lady noted that her husband, like other candidates in the party, deserves a second chance to lead the NPP.
“Just as we did for others, let us do same for Dr Bawumia. Just as others got second chances, Bawumia deserves same second chances to lead the New Patriotic Party for him to serve the country. We have learned and grown and we know the way forward. We have all learned what we need to do to help Ghanaians and Dr Bawumia is ready to do what Ghanaians want,” she added.
