I
am
deeply
honoured
today
as
the
chosen
running
mate
of
the
New
Patriotic
Party
(NPP).
I
am
humbled
to
be
nominated
by
our
distinguished
flagbearer,
H.E.
Alhaji
Dr.
Mahamudu
Bawumia
and
endorsed
unanimously
by
the
National
Council
in
accordance
with
the
provisions
of
the
NPP
Constitution.
I
am
privileged
and
duty-bound
to
extend
my
full
support
to
Dr.
Bawumia
as
we
work
together
to
realise
his
visionary
agenda
of
propelling
Ghana
to
greater
heights.
I
view
this
nomination
as
part
of
God’s
plan
for
my
life,
and
I
am
grateful
for
His
guidance
in
directing
my
path.
I
pray
for
His
ongoing
guidance
as
I
move
forward.
I
consider
this
nomination
as
a
call
to
higher
service,
a
call
to
sacrifice
and
a
duty
to
perform.
The
NPP
is
enriched
with
numerous
astute
personalities;
therefore,
I
recognise
the
significance
of
my
selection
and
do
not
take
it
lightly.
I
call
upon
all
our
members
to
join
hands
as
we
collectively
strive
to
achieve
our
ambitious
goal
of
transforming
Ghana
into
a
prosperous
nation.
I
express
my
gratitude
to
the
National
Council,
the
rank-and-file
of
our
party
and
our
esteemed
President,
Nana
Addo
Dankwa
Akufo-Addo,
for
their
unwavering
support
and
faith
in
me.
I
thank
Mr.
President
again
for
the
opportunity
granted
me
to
serve
in
two
respected
cabinet
positions.
I
am
forever
grateful.
I
am
equally
grateful
to
my
colleague
Ministers
of
State
members
of
Parliament
for
the
confidence
reposed
in
me.
It
has
prepared
me
for
a
day
like
this,
and
I
feel
ready
to
make
everyone
who
believes
in
me
proud
and
win
over
the
doubters.
I
understand
that
the
task
ahead
requires
our
collective
effort,
and
I,
therefore,
plead
with
every
party
member
to
come
on
board
as
we
seek
the
mandate
of
our
countrymen
and
women
once
again
to
serve
them.
As
I
assume
the
role
of
running
mate
alongside
my
esteemed
boss,
H.E.
Dr
Bawumia,
I
am
committed
to
supporting
him
to
prosecute
a
formidable
2024
campaign
to
break
the
8-year
election
cycle
and
serve
our
beloved
country
diligently.
Let
us
work
together
towards
a
brighter
future
for
Ghana.
My
philosophies
remain
service
and
leadership.
May
God
bless
our
Homeland,
Ghana
Thank
you.
