Speaking at the Youth Connect event in the Ashanti Region, Dr. Bawumia emphasized his hard work and accomplishments, claiming to have exceeded all former Vice Presidents in Ghana’s Fourth Republic.

“My work speaks for itself. If you compare the various Vice Presidents under the Fourth Republic, you can tell that my work rate stands out. If you ask John Mahama to point out even one policy initiative he spearheaded as Vice President, he can’t. I have 33 policies I’ve spearheaded. So the score is 33-0. Please promote me to become president because I’ve excelled as Vice President,” Dr. Bawumia stated.

He also stressed his long-term commitment to Ghana, claiming that his projected eight-year term would provide greater accountability than Mahama’s four-year term.”It is best to vote for someone who will be accountable than someone who has asked for a honeymoon even though he has just four years to be president,” he said to the enthusiastic crowd.

Dr. Bawumia’s campaign in the Ashanti Region is part of a larger effort to interact with young people and other stakeholders, highlighting his substantial accomplishments and policy efforts as significant grounds for his presidential ambition.

Similarly, the Vice President has begun distributing iPads to senior high school students across the country.

This effort is a huge step forward in the integration of Information Communication Technology (ICT) into the educational system, with the goal of providing students with the tools they need to complete their studies.

President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo recently launched the Smart School Project, which will see 1.3 million Smart Tablets distributed to pupils in schools around the country.

Dr. Yaw Osei Adutwum, the Education Minister, said during a visit to the Opoku Ware School that the tablets would be delivered in the coming weeks.
