In recent weeks, I’ve heard several arguments from different quarters suggesting that what our party needs heading into 2028 is someone who is “outspoken,” “loud,” and “confrontational.” I’ve heard comparisons, bravado, and all manner of projections. Some claim to be fearless. Others say they can take the fight to the NDC. Fair enough — everyone is entitled to their opinion.

But allow me to ask some honest, critical questions that cut through the noise:

When the NPP was at its lowest point after the painful loss in 2008, who rose to the challenge and fearlessly marketed the party’s ideals, programs, and policies to the Ghanaian people?

When we were faced with a constitutional battle at the Supreme Court after the controversial 2012 elections, who stood as our party’s lead technical brain, dissecting complex electoral data with calmness, brilliance, and unmatched precision?

Who has consistently defended the party’s record with facts, clarity, and confidence, even in the face of propaganda, insults, and intimidation?

The answer is simple and honest — Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia.

Dr. Bawumia has never needed to shout or insult to prove his strength. His brand of leadership is built on results, reason, research, and resilience — not noise. True courage is not measured by how high a man raises his voice, but how consistently he stands for truth, delivers under pressure, and takes bold decisions in moments of national challenge. Dr. Bawumia has done that — again and again.

Those claiming to be the most “fearless” today must show us their record. Courage is not about standing in a crowd and yelling slogans. Courage is showing up when it’s most difficult, when the stakes are highest, when the odds are against you — and still delivering.

As a party, we are not in a beauty contest or a popularity show. We are in a battle for the soul of Ghana, and we need a leader who combines political discipline, economic intellect, policy foresight, and international respect. That man is Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia.

Let’s also be honest: leading a political party — and more importantly, governing a country — is not the same as managing a personal enterprise or amassing wealth. This is not about who is richer or who can make the loudest noise. It is about who can inspire hope, unite the base, outthink the opposition, and build a country fit for the 21st century.

Dr. Bawumia understands the future. He understands digital transformation. He understands global economic trends. He understands the modern architecture of statecraft. He has served faithfully as Vice President, and he has laid the foundation for Ghana to become globally competitive. The Western world is not waiting for Africa to catch up — we need a leader who can close the gap. Bawumia is our best bet.

Yes, in every organization, there are financiers. That is their calling — and we must respect that. But we must not confuse financiers with leaders. The fact that one has money does not automatically make them the best candidate to lead a complex democracy like Ghana. This party must not be auctioned to the highest bidder. It must be entrusted to the most qualified, competent, and visionary among us — and that person is Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia.

Let’s be clear: 2028 is not just another election. It is a defining moment for the NPP — and for Ghana. We must recapture power not with noise, not with theatrics, but with a solid, strategic, and seasoned leader who knows how to move this country forward. That leader is already in our midst. He has already proven himself. He is ready.

Let us not make the mistake of choosing style over substance. Let us not be deceived by empty noise while ignoring proven leadership. Let us choose wisely.

Let us rally behind Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia — the true visionary, the true patriot, the true modern-day statesman. The man who has walked the path, paid his dues, and stands ready to lead.

The future is calling. NPP, let us answer wisely. Vote Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia for Flagbearer. Ghana needs him. NPP needs him. Now more than ever.
