The son of Ghana’s late former vice president, Alhaji Dr. Aliu Mahama, has said that he has no doubt in his mind that his late father would have surely given his blessing to the sitting vice president, Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, to become president.
He stressed that the late Aliu Mahama was the one who took Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia along with him across the country, just so he could get him to appreciate the country and its people.
“The same late Vice President Aliu Mahama took Bawumia to the nook and crannies of all the sixteen regions. It was through this campaign that we lost the late vice president, Alhaji Aliu Mahama. So, today, if I’m supporting Dr. Bawumia, then I’m telling you that if Aliu Mahama was alive, he would have wished Bawumia would be greater than him, and that is what I’m continuing,” he said.
He added that, together with all the other MPs who have shown support for the vice president, it is because they have hope that he (Dr. Bawumia) will change the narrative in the political system of Ghana.
“It tells you that there is something unique about this product that we want to sell. We are selling to the people of Ghana, and to say that Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia is coming to change the narrative, and Insha Allah, we are not surprised that the president made a good decision to choose Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia,” he added.
