NPP Vice President and flagbearer, Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia says building a Ghana that creates opportunities for all Ghanaians remains his top priority if he becomes President.
Paying a courtesy call on the Chief of Ashaiman (Ewe Community) and his elders during his campaign tour on Tuesday, Dr. Bawumia said he wants to build a Ghana where there is equal opportunity for all and sundry regardless of their ethnic and religious backgrounds.
"Building one Ghana with opportunity for all is my priority…I don't see religion when I look at people. I don't see tribe when I look at you. When I look at everybody, I see a human being like me”, Dr. Bawumia said.
While urging the Ewe community in Ashaiman and the nation at large to support his vision, Dr. Bawumia assured he will be a leader for the vulnerable in society.
"If you look at my body of work, I try so much to extend a helping hand to the vulnerable in society," he stated.
Dr. Bawumia referred to his role as patron of the Lepers Council in Ghana, his advocacy for sickle cell and kidney patients, among others, to demonstrate his passion for the disadvantaged in society.
He assured the community and all Ghanaians that he won't take their support for granted and as part of his inclusive development policies, he will ensure he meets their needs.
"I don't take support for granted and when you give me and the MP the opportunity, we will work very hard for you”, he said.
