Nkonkonsa Celebrity Gossip From Africa
Former President, John Mahama has condemned Vice President Dr Mahamudu Bawumia, alleging that he has misled Ghanaians regarding his role in the nation’s digitalisation initiatives.
He stated that Dr. Bawumia’s assertion that the Ghana Card enables individuals to travel abroad was misleading.
Addressing the fifth day of his visit to the Ashanti Region, the National Democratic Congress (NDC) candidate claimed that the Vice President knew his statements were false.
Mr. Mahama mentioned the inauguration of the E-Gates at Kotoka International Airport on Tuesday, December 3, where Dr. Bawumia allegedly faced a delay while trying to use his passport on the device.
The ex-president asserted that Dr. Bawumia aimed to strengthen his reputation as “Mr. Digital” by demonstrating the operation of the E-Gates.
Nonetheless, the reported issue cast doubt on the reliability of the Vice President’s digitalization initiative.
Mocking Dr Bawumia, Mr Mahama said, “The digital gate didn’t open for the digital man.”
He further added, “I will use his own words and say that ‘You can do all the propaganda with digitalisation you like, but if the fundamentals of your digitalisation are weak, the digital gate will expose you.’”
