My decision to support the NPP was a bold one, inspired by my firm belief in Dr. Bawumia's audacious solution-oriented policies. 📚 Yet, it's important to remember that the Almighty always has a plan, and Ghana often craves a change every eight years… 🔄. I am deeply grateful for each and every one of you who bolstered me with your unyielding support.
