We’ll suffer if Bawumia is not elected President in 2028 – KT Hammond

Former Member of Parliament for Adansi Asokwa, K.T. Hammond, has warned that Ghanaians will face hardship if former Vice President Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia is not elected as President in the 2028 elections.

He expressed strong confidence in Dr. Bawumia’s leadership abilities, insisting that he has the competence to steer the affairs of the country if given the mandate.

Speaking during Dr. Bawumia’s campaign tour in the Ashanti Region on September 10, Mr. Hammond dismissed criticisms against the former vice president, particularly those based on his religion.

He described as “madness” suggestions that Dr. Bawumia cannot be President because he is a Muslim.

“Have you monitored Bawumia’s capabilities and hard work? It’s madness to say Bawumia is a Muslim, so he can’t be a President. We will suffer if Bawumia is not elected as President,” he stated.

Mr. Hammond urged Ghanaians to focus on competence and commitment rather than religious considerations in choosing the country’s next leader.
