The New Patriotic Party (NPP) Running Mate, Dr. Alhaji Mahamudu Bawumia, is no longer just a son of Walewale in the Northern Region, but a man all Ghanaians can lay claim to. Hajia Mariama Bawumia, mother of the Dr. Bawumia, had these poignant words for people of her hometown and Ghanaians a day after the NPP’s 2016 election victory.
Mrs. Bawumia was speaking to Citi News on Saturday morning at the Bawumia’s family home as she espoused confidence in her son, saying “he is a hard working guy so I know he will do well as Vice President.” “At this moment he is for Ghana, not for Walewale. Now he is for Ghana and we cannot expect more than what he can do. So what he can do he will do it. If there is anything to help the community here he will help, but he is not here to say he is from Walewale. He is for Ghana so he will do what he can do for Ghana,” she said. The Vice-President-elect’s mother also has high hopes for the in the incoming NPP administration led by the President-elect, Nana Akufo-Addo, which she said will do “wonders”. “With Nana there, they are going to do wonders.
Nana is a workaholic and Mahamudu is one too. So the two coming together will do what they can for everybody to be happy.” “Nana is somebody Mahamudu can learn from. He’s his father and big brother so I am not worried. He is a father and big brother so I am not worried. He will deliver.” Dr. Bawumia, 53, has been by Nana Akufo-Addo’s side since 2008 where he was plucked to from the Bank of Ghana to become the NPP’s Running Mate. He will now stand alongside Nana Akufo-Addo at the Presidency after the NPP flagbearer was declared the 5th president of the 4th republic of Ghana by the Electoral Commission (EC) on Friday, December 9, 2016.
The NPP Flagbearer finally secured the presidency at the third time of asking, beating the incumbent, President John Mahama who became the first incumbent to lose a presidential election since Ghana returned to a multi-party democracy in 1992. The EC declared him the emphatic winner, with 53.85% of the votes, while President Mahama took 44.40% of the votes from the provisional results.

All the propaganda NDC did against Dr. Bawumia and Nana Addo have fallen flat. "So-so wonders Jesus dey do"

INSTEAD OF BOASTING ABOUT HOW WELL SHE HAS TRAINED AND EDUCATED HER SON, MAMA BAWUMIAH, JUST LIKE MARY THE MOTHER OF JESUS, IS SAYING LISTEN TO MY SON, HE HAS THE ANSWERS TO YOUR QUESTIONS. I STRONGLY BELIEVE THAT GOD WILL ANSWER HER PRAYERS AND THE AKUFFO-ADDO-BAWUMIAH TEAM WILL DELIVER FOR THE GLORY OF GOD. MY SON, BAWUMIAH, KUDOS. MAY THE ALMIGHTY GOD CONTINUE TO BLESS YOU FOR THE GOOD OF ALL. MAMA BAWUMIAH, AS THE AKAN PEOPLE SAY, "IT TAKES ONE MAN TO KILL THE ELEPHANT FOR THE WHOLE COMMUNITY TO ENJOY". AH! BAWUMIAH WO YE BUE!!!
GOD BLESS U HAJIA U A GREAT MUM
Mama thank you. Your efforts have been rewarded with a brilliant guy to serve mother Ghana. May you have the protection of the Almighty for you and your entire family.
God has taken Ghana 🇬🇭 ones again through a successful change of government through the power of the thumb but not the barrel of the gun. Every well-meaning Ghanaian and those residence within our borders should justifiably welcome this as a good 😊 news. We have experienced this phenomenon since 1992, after every eight years. That is why those feeling disappointed should have hope that possibly their choice government could one ☝️ day come back to power, hence the need to overcome this loss and support the incoming government with prayers 🙏 and cooperation. For those of us who are visibly rejoicing and justifiably so should not forget that we have simply voted for humans but not angels 👼 so that we should be modest in our celebration 🎉, bearing in mind that Ghana 🇬🇭 has been this road before. It is my prayer that, the God of all the earth 🌏 will guide the outgoing President to continue to give his best and commission even more infrastructure developments in the coming days with joy and glee. I want to see him mingle with Ghanaians and laugh 😂 off the tension of the last few months. I pray for the President-Elect, that he will pause now and allow this victory and the expectations of Ghanaians and its implications to settle well in his heart before he starts to make very major decisions. I pray that Ghana 🇬🇭 shall become the beacon of Africa and the world 🌎. I pray for economic Prosperity for all Ghanaians. I pray for a Ghana that supports whoever is in power devoid of party colours. I pray for a Ghana 🇬🇭 where the word of God reigns and thrives. May God continue to bless our home land Ghana and make us great and strong 💪. Above all, Jesus is still on the throne. He hasn't moved since 1992, he has remained on his throne since Kwame Nkrumah's era. Put your trust in Him. Still👍 Saving Jesus Campaigns!
This is the kind of mum most politicians need in this country. You can see the woman is as humble as her SON, The only Dr. with 175 questions. I can see Corruption is Far from that Family and Allah will continue to Bless You.
