Election 2024: Bawumia can’t be trusted to fight corruption – NDC

The National Democratic Congress (NDC) has launched a scathing attack on the New Patriotic Party’s (NPP) flagbearer, Dr Mahamudu Bawumia, accusing him of being a chronic liar who cannot be trusted to fight corruption if elected president.

The NDC further accused Dr Bawumia of being one of the key architects of the ongoing state capture and corruption that the opposition party claims has sent the country into destruction.

Addressing journalists during “The Moment of Truth” on August 7, 2024, Sammy Gyamfi, the party’s National Communications Officer, called on Ghanaians to reject the NPP’s flagbearer during the elections, stating that a vote for him would be a vote to cover up the “corrupt deeds of the NPP government and shield wrongdoers.”

“Alhaji Bawumia has proven time and again that he is a chronic liar and therefore cannot be trusted. It is clear from the foregoing facts, that Bawumia is one of the key architects of the ongoing state capture and corruption that is destroying our nation. He is neck-deep in the rampant corruption and nepotism that has engulfed this nation-wrecking NPP government. He cannot therefore be trusted to fight the canker of corruption, as he himself is an integral part of the free-for-all grabbing of state resources and the unprecedented state capture we are currently witnessing.

“It therefore goes without saying, that a vote for Alhaji Bawumia is a vote to cover up the corrupt deeds of this nation-wrecking NPP government and shield wrongdoers including Bawumia and his corrupt mentor, Akufo-Addo, from accountability. Bawumia cannot simply fight corruption. On the contrary, a vote for H.E. John Dramani Mahama is a vote for CHANGE- a change that will ensure genuine accountability and justice.”

The NDC called on the electorates to vote for its flagbearer John Dramani Mahama, to fight corruption when given the nod in the 2024 general elections.

“As you may be aware, H.E. John Dramani Mahama has promised that when elected, he will confront the canker of corruption head-on, by ensuring that the sword of accountability cuts both ways. He has promised to hold members of this corrupt Akufo-Addo/Bawumia/NPP government accountable for all their corrupt acts.”
