He will destroy everything I have done when he come, so I am pleading with you, the person who have worked with for the past seven and half years and I have strong believe in him and I know that he can continue my work for you to benefit he is called Mahamudu Bawumia, we are voting for him to come ad succeed me” Nana Addo said.

Adding that his next government will ensure that the Ghanaian people will benefit from the resources in their own country so he won’t push the citizens into the poverty bracket like what Nana Addo has done.
“Of course, I will not protect your ‘legacy’ of corruption, misgovernance, arrogance, ineptitude, bankrupt economy, increased unemployment, and pushing more of our people into the poverty bracket.” Mahama wrote.
President Akufo-Addo on several occasions has vowed that he will do everything possible to ensure that vice president Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia will succeed him after the general elections.
Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia will make history in the political landscape of Ghana if he leads the NPP to break the 8.
