We've delivered 80% of our 2020 manifesto promises - Bawumia

Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, the flagbearer of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), claims that the Akufo-Addo-Bawumia administration has fulfilled 80% of the pledges made in their 2020 manifesto.

During a media appearance on Sunday, August 25, Dr. Bawumia emphasized the government's commitment to keeping its promises. 

He compared this achievement with the performance of National Democratic Congress (NDC) flagbearer John Dramani Mahama, claiming that Mahama only accomplished 28% of his 2012 manifesto promises.

He said, “I think that we have a very pretty record in terms of honouring our promises. We’ve done some work to look at our 2016 manifesto, and what proportion of those manifestos we’ve honoured, and 83 percent have been honoured. And when you look at the 2020 manifesto, 2020, even in the midst of all these crises, we are fulfilling or we’ve fulfilled 80 percent of our 2020 promises in our manifesto.”

“My opponent in his 2012 manifesto when he became the president, he only fulfilled 28 percent of his 2012 manifesto, 280 promises, he didn’t fulfil 203 of the 280 promises. So, I think we have a better record as far as fulfilling promises."
