Story Highlights
  • Fifi Kwetey says Dr. Bawumia lacks credibility to lead Ghana as President.
  • Bawumia is complicit in government failures and can't distance himself from its shortcomings.
  • Kwetey criticizes Bawumia for promising changes without addressing existing challenges.
  • John Mahama's credibility surpasses Bawumia's, with a track record of achievements and delivered promises.

Fifi Fiavi Kwetey, the General Secretary of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), has made a strong statement that Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, the flagbearer of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), lacks the credibility to lead Ghana as President.

Kwetey emphasized that as an integral part of the current government, Bawumia is complicit in its failures and cannot distance himself from the administration’s shortcomings, making him unfit to assume the highest office in the land.

Fifi Kwetey vehemently criticized Dr. Bawumia and the government for refusing to take responsibility for their economic mismanagement and failing to apologize to Ghanaians for the crisis they have created. He expressed shock that Dr. Bawumia continues to promise transformative changes in key sectors, yet has failed to address the existing challenges, instead waiting to be elected President before implementing reforms.

Fifi Kwetey sees this as a clear indication of incompetence and lack of political will, highlighting the need for a leader who can take charge and address the country’s problems. In contrast, Fifi Kwetey asserted that the credibility of the NDC’s flagbearer, John Dramani Mahama, far surpasses that of Dr. Bawumia, highlighting the former’s track record of achievements and commitment to delivering on promises.

Fifi Kwetey emphasized that Mahama has a proven track record of leadership, having served as President before, and has demonstrated the ability to deliver on his promises, unlike Dr. Bawumia who has only made empty promises.

He noted that the upcoming election will be decided by the credibility of the presidential candidates, rather than the empty rhetoric being peddled by Dr. Bawumia.

Fifi Kwetey emphasized that the real essence of leadership is the capacity to have the principle to say things and mean them, and to be able to apologize when things go wrong, which Dr. Bawumia has failed to demonstrate.

Fifi Kwetey’s statement highlights the need for a credible leader who can deliver on promises and address the country’s challenges, and emphasizes that Dr. Bawumia lacks the credibility to lead Ghana as President.
