Former Vice President has called on the government to refrain from what he describes as attempts to settle political scores, urging leaders to prioritize national development over partisan battles.
Dr. Bawumia stressed that Ghana’s current economic and social challenges require unity and constructive engagement rather than political retaliation.
Call for Restraint and National Unity
Addressing party supporters and stakeholders, the former Vice President cautioned against using state institutions or public platforms to target political opponents. He emphasized that governance must be driven by the collective good of the country, not retribution.
“This is not the time to settle political scores,” he stated, adding that Ghanaians expect leadership that delivers solutions, not divisions.
Focus on Economic Recovery
Dr. Bawumia noted that Ghana is navigating a complex economic landscape, with rising cost-of-living pressures and fiscal constraints. According to him, government efforts should be channeled toward stabilizing the economy, restoring investor confidence, and creating jobs.
He argued that political distractions could derail recovery efforts and undermine public trust in democratic institutions.
Appeal for Mature Politics
The former Vice President further called for mature political discourse and respect for the rule of law. He urged all political actors to contribute positively to national development and avoid rhetoric that could inflame tensions.
Observers say his remarks come amid heightened political exchanges between the ruling administration and opposition figures.
Dr. Bawumia concluded by reiterating his commitment to democratic principles and peaceful political engagement, stressing that Ghana’s progress must remain the ultimate priority over partisan interests.
