Vice President of IMANI AFRICA, Kofi Bentil wants Ghanaians to give Vice President Bawumia "fair hearing" as he believes he will be a better President.

In a Facebook post dated February 3, 2023, Bentil argued that Bawumia must be given the opportunity to prove his capabilities as president since his main contender John Mahama has had that chance.

“Every man deserves a fair hearing. We gave Prez Mahama a chance to be President, the least we can do is give Dr Bawumia a fair and objective hearing. He is not President, and has never been President! I have no doubt he will be better!”

The lawyer asserts that Bawumia, with a proven track record of being incorruptible, is the best man to lead Ghana.

According to him, Bawumia as President will do excellent because currently, he doesn’t wield real power. 

"Indeed the Minister for Finance has more constitutional power than the VP in managing our finances and the EMT has zero power to effect its decisions. They advise the President who acts through his ministers!!!"

 

Describing  Bawumia as the best vice president ever in Ghana’s history, Kofi Bentil stated that the NPP presidential candidate despite the limitations of his office has proven himself worthy of being given the power to write his own history as president of the Republic of Ghana.

“I trust VP Bawumia. Because he has been the best VP ever. Even under trying circumstances he has shown himself not corrupt and indeed has been effective in delivering some crucial transformations,” he stated.

He is not President, and has never been President! I have no doubt he will be better!

The VP position in Ghana, apart from standing in when the president is away (and he can’t make any serious decisions), it is totally powerless! he is like an advisor! There’s a good reason Kwame Nkrumah refused to have a Vice President!

Indeed the Minister of finance has more constitutional power than the VP in managing our finances and the EMT has zero power to effect its decisions. They advise the President who acts through his ministers!!!

I trust VP Bawumia. Because he has been the best VP ever. Even under trying circumstances he has shown himself not corrupt and indeed has been effective in delivering some crucial transformations.

I am entitled like everyone to my belief and choice and I believe he is a better choice.

All the rest of us need to do, is give the man a fair hearing. Of course you’re entitled to your choice but you cheat yourself if you close your ears.
