1. Mr. John Mahama handed over only 3 Astro Turfs to Nana-Bawumia government in 2017. As to whether he even constructed the 3 Astro Turfs is a question for debate. Under the Nana-Bawumia government, Ghana can boast of over 150 Astro Turfs dotted across the country. Nana-Bawumia government have constructed 4 Astro Turfs (Damongo, Larbanga, Busunu and Salaga Astro Turfs) for the good people of Savannah Region, Mr. John Mahama's home region.
2. From the traditional 10 regions, Nana-Bawumia government have created 6 more regions, making the regions in Ghana 16 now. The good people of Gonja Kingdom yearned for a region for about four decades but Mr. John Mahama failed as a Vice President and President to give them a region. Under Nana-Bawumia government, Gonjaland got a region.
3. Under John Mahama, Ghana had only 55 semi functional ambulances across the country. Nana-Bawumia government have added 307 ambulances under the One Constituency, One Ambulance Initiative. Mr. John Mahama added only 2 ambulance stations to the previously existing 128 stations but Nana-Bawumia government have unprecedentedly added 145 ambulance stations across the country with massive increase in employment in that sector from 178 to 2574.
4. Under John Mahama and NDC, they could only boast of 5 factories but Nana-Bawumia government have supervised construction of 321 factories with 169 completed and operational. Remember, almost all the factories Dr. Kwame Nkrumah built were destroyed by PNDC/NDC governments. Just in case you want to know where Dr. Kwame Nkrumah's factories varnished to.
5. John Mahama and NDC could only construct 4636Km of roads within their eight-year period. Nana-Bawumia government have constructed 12830Km of roads across the country. The difference is clear. Data do not lie.
6. Under the Nana-Bawumia government, 12 interchanges are being constructed with 6 completed and others ongoing. The records are there for you to see. No green book projects.Total interchange projects constructed by NDC government were only 5.
7. Total railway lines constructed by NDC government within their 8-year period were 15Km (Takoradi - Kojokrom - Sekondi). Nana-Bawumia government have constructed unprecedented 323Km of railway lines (Kojokrom-Manso: 22Km, Tema-Mpakadan: 97Km, Manso-Huni Valley: 78Km and other rehabilitation works: 126Km).
8. From 2009 to 2016, Ghanaians lost confidence in the National Health Insurance Scheme, which led to decrease in subscriber population from 12.5 million to 11.03 million. With better management of the Scheme, the subscriber population increased from the 11.03 million to 17.5 million under the leadership of Nana Akufo-Addo and Dr. Bawumia. The scheme has expanded it's services to cover sickle cell disease, some childhood cancers, kidney dialysis and free yearly medical checkup.
9. Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia can boast of 33 policy initiatives championed by him but Mr. John Mahama is not able to tell us what he brought onboard to help his boss as a Vice President of Ghana. What is publicly known is that, Mr. John Mahama was assigned to attend funeral and other social events whiles his boss concentrated on the hard core economic management.
10. Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia has presented his policies to the good people of Ghana and he is ready to start work from day one as a President of Ghana. He does not need any honeymoon unlike Mr. John Mahama who is asking for a honeymoon from Ghanaians. I believe, you now understand why Mr. John Mahama is running away from debating Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia. It is obviously UPGRADE over RESET.
