Bawumia, as a Loyal and principled member, of government accepts collective responsibility for all government’s policies. The three (3) years period between 2017 and 2019 saw Ghana under the NPP achieve record breaking macro economic successes, including Interest Rates, Treasury Bill Rates, Exchange Rate, Deficit, Growth Rate etc
Covid and Russia Ukraine war have brought severe economic difficulties throughout the world. What is important now is the work Government, (including Bawumia), is doing to lift Ghana back to the situation between 2017 to 2019. The measures have started bearing fruits, as seen in the Exchange Rate over the past few months (Cedi stable, petrol price falling, good effect on transport fares etc). Bawumia will deepen, the process of Restoration, and build a Ghana we will all be proud of. Beyond the current difficulties, there have been many successes and our record is superior to that of the NDC:
• The NPP has constructed more roads, classrooms, railway, bridges, interchanges public libraries, fish landing sites, access to drinking water, access to toilet facilities than any other government in the fourth republic.
• We are constructing 120 courts (over 60 completed.) More than any other government in the fourth republic
• We have created more jobs (over 2 million) than any other government since independence
• Issued the Ghanacard - National ID Card
• Digital Address System
• Mobile Money Interoperability.
• Digitization of services like passports, DVLA, ECG, Ports etc
• Zipline Drones
• Restoration of teacher and nursing training allowances
• One District One Factory
• Planting for Food and Jobs
• One Constituency One Ambulance

In the period of difficulty, we have not laid off workers, there has been no dumsor, and no petrol shortages and we have not cancelled nursing and teacher training allowances.
