Akosua Manu, special aide to former Vice President Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, has praised her boss as the most prepared and proven leader to steer the New Patriotic Party (NPP) back to power in 2028, describing him as a man who has been “tested, proven, and prepared to deliver.”
In a Facebook post, Akosua Manu reflected on Dr. Bawumia’s political and personal journey, arguing that his resilience, integrity, and innovation over the years have set him apart as the standard-bearer of purposeful leadership within the NPP and Ghana at large.
She said Dr. Bawumia’s life and career embody what she called “divine quality control a process through which time, trials, and truth separate true leaders from pretenders.”
According to her, every era presents a refining moment, and those who emerge stronger through that process are destined to lead.
“Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia has been through that sacred furnace,” she wrote. “He has been tested — by time, by trials, by tongues of critics, and by the weight of leadership. Yet, he stands—unbroken, unbent, unbought.”
The former Deputy Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of the National Youth Authority (NYA) described Dr. Bawumia as a leader who has faced challenges head-on, turned obstacles into opportunities, and consistently demonstrated vision anchored in service.
She credited Bawumia with championing Ghana’s digital transformation agenda, which has modernised systems across public institutions and enhanced transparency and efficiency in governance.
