Ghana’s Future Will Be Better If My Husband Becomes President – Samira Assures

The Effia constituency in the Western Region was draped in the colours of the governing New Patriotic Party (NPP) as enthusiastic supporters converged when the Second Lady, Hajia Samira Bawumia, stormed the area to campaign for her husband, Dr Mahamudu Bawumia, the flagbearer of the party.

The event kicked off with Hajia Samira paying a courtesy call on Muslim leaders at the Mosque at ‘Pipe Ano’, a suburb of Takoradi.

After this, she addressed a large and energized crowd gathered at Effiakuma Zongo, at a location known as ‘VIP.’

In her speech, Hajia Samira underscored the critical importance of the upcoming 2024 general elections, framing it as a vote for the future and progress of Ghana. She urged the residents of Effia to vote massively for Dr Bawumia and Isaac Boamah Nyarko, the NPP’s parliamentary candidate for the constituency.

“Ghana’s future will be better if Dr Mahamudu Bawumia becomes president,” she stated, adding that her husband’s leadership will ensure the continuity of the NPP government’s initiatives.

She praised Dr Bawumia’s competence, dedication, and innovative approach, which she believes makes him the ideal candidate to lead Ghana forward.

Hajia Samira also highlighted the numerous social interventions introduced by the NPP government, particularly the Free Senior High School policy, which has significantly impacted many households across the country. Drawing from her personal experiences, she emphasized the transformative power of education.

“I was born and nurtured in the Zongo, and if it hadn’t been for education, I wouldn’t be where I am today,” she said, noting that the Free SHS policy aims to give every child the opportunity to succeed, just as she did.

Addressing misconceptions about the NPP, Hajia Samira pointed out the party’s commitment to inclusivity, which is evidenced by Dr Bawumia’s historic candidacy. “The opposition NDC used to say that the NPP is a political party for only the Akans, but the party has shown that this is not true by electing Dr Bawumia as its flagbearer,” she said.

She continued, “It is only under the NPP government that the country has seen Muslims becoming Vice Presidents and Insha Allah, come December 7, Dr Bawumia will be the next President.”

The Second Lady expressed her confidence that the Zongo communities would vote massively for Dr Bawumia, not just because he is a Muslim, but because he is competent, knowledgeable, and has a vision to transform the country.

The NPP’s Parliamentary Candidate for Effia, Isaac Yaw Boamah Nyarko, also addressed the crowd, describing Dr Bawumia as a humble and hardworking leader. He praised the Vice President for spearheading various digitalization initiatives and vowed to transform the Effia constituency into a stronghold for the NPP in the 2024 general elections.

“I believe Effia has the potential to give not less than 70 per cent of the total votes to the NPP,” Nyarko asserted, rallying the constituents to support their candidates in the upcoming elections.

The event concluded with loud cheers and chants in support of the NPP, as the crowd demonstrated their commitment to backing Dr Bawumia and the party’s Parliamentary Candidate in the Effia constituency.

As the election season heats up, Hajia Samira’s visit has undoubtedly bolstered the NPP’s campaign efforts in the Western Region, leaving a strong impression on the constituents of Effia.
