The 2012 vice presidential candidate of the New Patriotic
Party, Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, says 2016 is not the time for the party to
experiment with a new candidate as the consequences for such an action will be
dire. Addressing NPP delegates at the Assembly Hall of the Bolgatanga
Secondary Technical School, Dr. Bawumia stressed that the NPP is on course to
win the 2016 election with Nana Akufo-Addo as the presidential candidate of the
Party. Touching on the incompetence of John Mahama, Dr. Bawumia indicated that
the ruling National Democratic Congress has so far proven itself to be a
government that "creates problems, instead of solving problems. According
to Dr. Bawumia, the NDC has always found money for schemes such as SADA, SUBAH
and GYEEDA. However, when it comes to finding money for teachers to buy chalk,
teachers and nurses allowances, paying of contractors, the GETFund, District
Assemblies Common Fund, the government retorts by saying "there is no
money. He revealed that interest payments on Ghana's debt in 2014 alone is four
times Ghana's oil revenue, adding that "they have destroyed Ghana's oil. Dr.
Bawumia asked the delegates gathered, to give NPP the chance to lead the
country come 2016 general elections.
