Ive Elevated Ghanas Political Discourse From Sheer Rhetoric To Real Issue Discourse Bawumia

The flagbearer of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), says he has successfully transformed Ghana’s political discourse by shifting it from superficial rhetoric to substantive, issue-based conversations.

Speaking at the Ghana CEO Presidential Gala held at the Movenpick Hotel on Thursday, November 7, Dr Mahamudu Bawumia emphasised the importance of addressing real issues through data-backed discussions, rather than engaging in empty political rhetoric.

He noted that throughout his time in public office, particularly as Vice President, he has consistently focused on providing solutions to Ghana’s most pressing obstacles.

He highlighted his commitment to presenting policies that are not just aspirational but grounded in tangible data and evidence that can drive the country forward.

The NPP flagbearer stressed that political discourse in Ghana had long been dominated by vague promises and political posturing.

He argued that his approach has brought a new level of accountability to the political conversation, with a focus on real issues such as economic growth, infrastructure development, and job creation.

Bawumia concluded by asserting that this shift in focus is essential for Ghana’s development and progress, stating that only through informed, issue-centered discussions can the country move forward.

He pledged to persist fostering this type of dialogue if allowed to lead the nation as president.

"Ladies and Gentlemen, as a distinguished group of Ghanaians, CEOs, your contributions can elevate Ghana’s political discourse from sheer rhetoric and disingenuous manipulation of information to real issue-based civic discourse."

"This is what I have championed over the years; a focus on issue-based and data-backed public conversations. One such topic is how to reignite the business economy in Ghana," the Vice President said.King Edward Ambrose Washman/
