The former General Secretary of the PNC, Atik Mohammed, has offered valuable advice to Dr Mahamudu Bawumia as the Vice President embarks on his journey into the 2024 elections.
Mohammed's advice to Bawumia is centred on the importance of embracing and adhering to a distinct and independent vision for Ghana, one that sets him apart and resonates with the electorate.
The backdrop for Mohammed's advice is the vice president's assurance to Ghanaians that he envisions his own unique path and priorities.

Following his recent victory in the New Patriotic Party's presidential election, Bawumia emphatically stated:
"Given the opportunity by you, the people of Ghana to lead, I shall govern as my own man with guidance from God Almighty."
He further outlined his vision, disclosing that there would be the creation of an inclusive, food self-sufficient, data-driven, and systems-based nation.
This nation, in his words, would fully engage in the global digital revolution to address domestic challenges and usher in a golden age of benefits derived from the country's abundant natural resources.
Dr. Bawumia's vision extends to the empowerment and improvement of the lives of Ghanaian youth.
He expressed his commitment to leading a nation that not only harnesses the potential of its young population but also offers them quality employment opportunities, sustainable growth, and macroeconomic discipline.
While contributing to the discussions on Peace FM's morning show "Kokrokoo," Atik Mohammed expressed optimism that the Vice President is forging his own path and not merely following in the footsteps of President Nana Akufo-Addo.
Mohammed raised concerns about the consequences of a potential association with Akufo-Addo's track record, stating:
"Some of the sins, I mean, the punishment (of Akufo-Addo) was visited on Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia [during the presidential primaries..."
In Mohammed's view, it would be a grave mistake for Bawumia to anchor his campaign solely on Akufo-Addo's track record.
He also commended Dr Bawumia for making it abundantly clear that he possesses his unique vision and will approach the upcoming election with an independent and innovative perspective.
The PNC stalwart concluded by emphasising that Dr Bawumia's success in the 2024 election hinges on his ability to introduce a novel and distinctive vision that differentiates him from the current administration, potentially avoiding the challenges associated with Akufo-Addo's perceived shortcomings.
Meanwhile, shortly after Bawumia was declared winner, his closest contender, Kennedy Ohene Agyapong accepted and pledged his support for his campaign.
