Mr. Sammi Awuku, who is the Director-General of the National Lottery Authority (NLA), thinks that the Vice President, Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, will make a great president.
He claims that Dr. Bawumia will be an excellent candidate for president since he is a young guy with a courageous and optimistic vision for the future.
In an interview with Asempa FM in Accra, Sammi Awuku said that “He looks into the future with courage and optimism. I’m fond of him and I think he will make a great President if the party opens nominations and he expresses interest in contesting for the flagbearership of the NPP”.
“I asked him two critical questions and he told me his major focus is to create a future of opportunities for young people. He is very tolerant and that politics of inclusion is admirable. He also believes that with a coordinated effort, we can build a strong resilient country to make Ghana very formidable.”
The former national organiser of the NPP said that Dr. Mamhudu Bawumia’s sacrifice for the political party is another thing that brings them closer together. He said that the Vice President spent eight months of his life defending the party’s position in the Supreme Court, which is a great thing to do.
“If Dr Mahamudu Bawumia should declare his intentions to contest for the flagbearership, he should know that in the NPP we compete for everything. He should know that it will not be a walk in the park, he is going to be grilled and people can make an industry out of propaganda that will be used against him.”
“Even though he is up against several powerful opponents, I see him as the leading candidate. Therefore, if the NPP opens nominations and he declares his intentions to run, I think he can give it a good go, and I think he will make a very good President of Ghana if he is confirmed by the NPP and the people of Ghana” he added.
