Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, the flagbearer of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), has promised to reduce the cost of public transport by 40% if elected in the 2024 presidential elections.

This reduction is part of his plan to introduce electric vehicles into the public transportation system.

” We expect that the cost of public transport will come down by about 40 % if we begin the electric vehicle movement” .

He said this when speaking at the 24th General Assembly 2024 at Ramseyer Training Centre – Abetifi, Kwahu during the weekend.

Dr. Bawumia explained further that the shift to electric vehicles would significantly lower transportation costs due to reduced expenses on fuel and maintenance.

He stated that electric vehicles have fewer issues with spare parts and are less affected by fluctuating fuel prices.

He said if the plan proceeds as hoped, the first 100 electric buses will arrive before December, marking the beginning of the electric vehicle initiative

” Public transportation is very high. I have proposed that Ghana should move towards electric vehicles because the cost is much lower. You deal with spare parts which spoilt all the time you not looking at increase in fuel prices all the time. What I’m happy to say is that if all goes well [I am keeping my fingers ] , the first 100 electric buses will arrive before December for us to begin the implementation of Electric vehicle system.said Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia

Addressing the Presbyterian Church of Ghana’s concerns, Dr. Bawumia reiterated his stance on the LGBTQ+ bill, emphasizing that such practices would not be tolerated under his presidency.

He reaffirmed his commitment to preserving Ghanaian values, religion, and culture.

The Presbyterian Church of Ghana has previously expressed deep disappointment with the government’s handling of illegal mining and its delays regarding the LGBTQ+ bill.

During the 24th General Assembly of the Church, Rt. Rev. Dr. Abraham Nana Opare Kwakye also criticized the government’s inability to address illegal mining effectively and urged for a stronger institutional response.
