Dr. Matthew Opoku Prempeh, the running mate of the New Patriotic Party’s flagbearer Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, has asserted that no president, including the esteemed first President of Ghana, Dr. Kwame Nkrumah, has advanced Ghana’s development as significantly as the current President, Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo.
Prempeh highlighted President Akufo-Addo’s unparalleled achievements.
During his introduction in Kumasi on Tuesday, Prempeh praised the President’s development initiatives and transformative leadership.
“Since independence from 1957 till today, we’ve not had any president that has helped Ghana like Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo. I say from 1957 to now if you take your Kwame Nkrumah, no one has become president who has protected Ghana and moved it forward like Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo,” he stated.
He emphasized that under President Akufo-Addo’s leadership, Ghana has experienced substantial progress in various sectors, including education, healthcare, infrastructure, and the economy.
Prempeh highlighted the government’s policies, such as the Free SHS policy and the One District, One Factory initiative, noting their widespread praise for their impact on the nation’s development.
