In a video sighted by YEN.com.gh, the unnamed lady declared both presidential hopefuls unfit to lead the people of Ghana, listing the reasons she believes so.

Both Kennedy Agyapong and Dr Mahamudu Bawumia are members of Ghana's New Patriotic Party (NPP), and they both have recently filed nominations to contest for the NPP's flagbearer position ahead of the 2028 elections.

From the woman's perspective, she raises some serious concerns against Kennedy, painting him as a national security threat. She slammed the outspoken politician, charging him with using his public appearance to incite violence.

Ghanaian woman criticises Kennedy and Bawumia

She recalled saying that Kennedy's actions led to the death of one of Ghana's own journalists, Ahmed Suale, back in 2019, for splashing photos of him on national TV. Central to her critique was the assertion that Kennedy Agyapong lacks a credible track record for national leadership.

Turning her attention to Dr Mahamudu Bawumia, the former Vice President and fellow presidential hopeful, the Ghanaian lady was sharply critical of his economic stewardship. She highlighted his failure to deliver on promises to stabilize the cedi against the dollar.

Despite Bawumia’s earlier pledge to bolster the cedi, the currency, she said, drastically depreciated under his leadership. She pointed out the glaring contradiction in his promise to move Ghana from “taxation to production,” only to introduce new tax policies.

She concluded her outcry, calling Bawumia is a “theoretical economist” whose impressive academic credentials have failed to translate into effective governance and economic stability.
