Bawumia’s strength is competence, not business background – Nana Akomea

Director of Communications for the New Patriotic Party (NPP), Nana Akomea, has applauded former Vice President Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia for his tremendous record in public service, stressing that leadership must be assessed by effectiveness and competence rather than business credentials.

According to Nana Akomea, political leadership should not be reduced to business experience only.

“Not everyone will be a businessman; what matters is how well you perform in your position, and Bawumia is known for doing an excellent job.

“It’s important to consider a person’s strengths in their chosen field,” he said in an interview.

Nana Akomea also threw more light on Bawumia’s contributions to both governance and party development, specifying his efforts to support members across the party’s ranks.

“Bawumia has genuinely helped party members, from polling station executives to national leaders.

“If he comes to power, he aims for equal appointments and plans to implement constituency budgets so that every constituency is aware of and benefits from decentralized resources,” he added.
