President of Citizen Eye Ghana, Alex Kwaku Tetteh has hailed Vice President and NPP flagbearer, Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia as a visionary leader.
In what could be described as a public endorsement of Dr. Bawumia;s candidature, Alex Tetteh praised Bawumia as a forward-thinking leader with the insights necessary to propel Ghana into a new era of progress.
“After reviewing the policy documents from the NPP, NDC, and other candidates, it’s clear that Dr. Bawumia demonstrates exceptional intellectual superiority,” he asserted.
Mr. Tetteh, who says he had had initial doubts about the implementation of a credit card system, was inspired by the cashless transactions he observed in the U.S.
“Seeing how effortlessly people manage their finances there changed my perspective. A good credit score can significantly ease access to necessities,” he noted, urging all 29,000 members of Citizen Eye Ghana to support Bawumia in the upcoming elections.
He also underscored Bawumia’s groundbreaking vision for agriculture, emphasizing the need for substantial investment in sectors like poultry.
“The poultry industry in Ghana is ripe for improvement and innovation. With Dr. Bawumia’s proposals, we can ensure that poultry products become more affordable for everyone,” he said, calling for government support for farms like BunTaa Farms, the largest poultry operation in West Africa.
Furthermore, Mr. Tetteh expressed optimism about Bawumia’s plans to boost rice production, aiming to reduce Ghana’s reliance on rice imports. His endorsement also extended to Bawumia’s proposed flat rate for import duties, which has been met with enthusiasm among his colleagues in the Vehicle and Asset Dealers Association of Ghana (VADAG). “As a protocal officer, this policy will streamline processes for many, and we are eager to rally behind Dr. Bawumia,” he added.
As the elections approach, Alex Tetteh emphasized the crucial role of the media in fostering a peaceful political environment. He called on media outlets to provide balanced coverage and educate the public on the various party policies, particularly highlighting key pages from the NPP and NDC documents. However, he expressed disappointment over the lack of specific policies to support the media in fulfilling this essential role.
