What is this excitement within folks in the NPP over a misleading article seeking to compare Alex Mould’s pedigree to that of a failed Vice President who deceived Ghanaians into voting them to power in 2016?
There will be another day to assess his performance as Veep. But truth be told, a cursory look at the profile of both personalities should clearly tell you Dr. Bawumia's achievements before his nomination as the running mate of the NPP comes nowhere near that of Mr. Alex Mould.
Dr. Mahamadu Bawumia:
Dr. Bawumia spent most of his formative years talking (lecturing at foreign universities as an Economist) versus than executing and holding the C-Suite (corporate life). He was never the Head of any public or private institution or organization before.
The little we know about Dr Bawumia shows he worked at the research department of IMF and then joined Bank of Ghana as Senior Economist. He was then promoted to Head of Department, and later became the special assistant to the Governor and was appointed Deputy Governor (a position he held for two years) before joining politics.
Alex Mould:
With over 30 years of international energy and banking experience, Alex Mould is widely regarded as one of Africa’s leading authorities on energy, economic, banking, finance and leadership issues. In fact, his pedigree shows that he has managed organisations successfully.
From his days as the Executive Director of Standard Chartered Bank in private life to Chief Executive of the National Petroleum Authority and Ghana National Petroleum Corporation in public life.
He's also held senior positions at Standard Chartered Bank, not only in Ghana but in New York and Union Bank of Switzerland, also in New York.
Conclusion
Dr Bawumia’s performance goes to confirm the perception that there’s a difference between what is thought in class and what actually pertains in the corporate world. He campaigned on lies and deceits to win political power and when it came to execution he has failed all Ghanaians who had hope in him.
Alex Mould, on the other hand, has worked most of his life in leadership roles in the finance industry and in commercial banking and corporate banking and in the energy sector.
A little research on his achievements in these institutions reveals he put up an impressive performance and it’s all over the internet for our education.
So I totally agree with Mr. Mould when he says they are not in competition. Dr. Bawumia has been there and failed and to borrow his own words “if the fundamentals are weak, the exchange rate will expose you”. And now that we are all aware the fundamentals are weak, the exchange rate has exposed Dr. Bawumia’s skill set and he has failed all of us who trusted him during the 2016 elections.
Alex Mould, on the other hand, has a record of being able to deliver what has been assigned him from his days at Standard Chartered Bank to NPA and GNPC.
At least we all know he is a thinker and doer. Highly educated with and a proven leader with unrivalled international and local experience. He is a patriot who wants Ghana to live up to her potential, and deliver for the benefit of all Ghanaians.

A RUNNING MATE IN DISGUISE
All these are non fa from both parties - NPP and NDC alike. If you want to measure the substance of so called leaders and educated ones, look at our economy and life after over 60 years of independence. Simple as that. Did our leaders not attend the same Oxford and Havard and Lincoln and other elite educational institutions like the leaders in the western world? And if yes, then why have we retrogressed as a nation with the leaders with the same training as those of the West? Shame on us our educated folk, shame on us as a country
What did he really add or achieved in working at these institutions? These are achievements not institutions you worked. Let him tell us his achievements. Anyway, lemme divert a little. Mr Alex worked in some banks but Dr. Bawumia worked at institutions your institutions report to. Desperate to compare somebody to Dr. Bawumia. Lol.
Chaaley Chaaley, this piece is a great disservice to Alex Mould's chances. Those behind should desist right away. This is child's thoughts. Alex please stop them before they ruin your ambitions.
After reading this piece, I can confirm that the authors have their reasoning faculties upside down. This is the reason why Ghana always retrogress whenever they manager this economy.
So where was this man when Ghanaians were in darkness? Where was he when the economy of Ghana was performing poorly? They are only struggling to come to loot again. Little minded people!!!
Very soon Alex Mould would be labelled with false charges on the others of Ken Agyepong who now controls the Ghana Police Service. Lol..
Folks it doesn’t matter who the ded goat will choose all I know is we are not going to fly on Airbus through dumso to imf anymore when little babies with sharp teeth are on board and land us at Woyomey’s backyard. I know there could be Ford Expedition to take us by land but we would have preferred to take bus branding driven by Ativor in the middle of Berko power bribery crisis so I decree like the Jews said never again to ndc. NDC YAAMUTU NDC YAAMUTU NDC YAAMUTU NDC YAAMUTU
What were some of the companies and institutions did Kwame Nkrumah, our first president work in as CEO before before becoming our president? Haba! Being a manager at Stanchart does not mean you can succeeded as a vice president. As a boss in Stanchart or GNPC your subordinates will not openly attack and insult you. Try being a vice president and see!
@BROCK HAMSON, WHY? BCOS PEACE IS A NPP SO THEY CAN DIFFERENTIATE A SPOON FROM A SPADE, BETTER PUT THEY CANT CALL A SPADE A SPADE....TAKE YOUR FUUUUUUUUUULLLLLLLLLISSSSSSSSSSHHHHHHHH S3333333333LLLLLLLFFFFFF SOMEWHERE.
