Flagbearer hopeful of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, has reiterated that his interest in politics is driven by a desire to improve the lives of Ghanaians rather than for personal gain.
Addressing delegates during his campaign tour of Amenfi West in the Western Region, Dr. Bawumia highlighted his record of transparency and cost efficiency, citing the Mobile Money Interoperability project as an example.
“I entered politics to serve the people, not to enrich myself,” he said. “When we initiated the Mobile Money Interoperability project, the NDC had proposed a contract worth 1.2 billion dollars. We cancelled that deal and instead completed the entire project for just 4.5 million dollars — not even up to 5 million. This initiative has greatly benefited Ghanaians and created thousands of jobs.”
Dr. Bawumia noted that his joy lies in seeing how government policies have impacted ordinary citizens across the country.
“My greatest joy comes from seeing how these projects are transforming lives, not from personal gain. I am not in politics for money — I am here to make a difference in the lives of ordinary Ghanaians,” he added.
