Mrs. Bawumia added that the opponents of the NPP, especially the National Democratic Congress (NDC) are not sleeping hence the party must double its effort to win the 2020 elections.
“We must work hard. There are others undermining your good work so we can’t go to sleep. Already, they are stealing our obvious achievements such as the Free SHS so you can imagine.”

She however advised politicians to avoid violence and intemperate language during electioneering campaigns because “politics is not about hating each other.”
“We must love each other. Politics is a contest of ideas. We must know that we are each other’s keeper. We must not be divided by politics. We’re one people. Violence should never be tolerated,” she noted.
“Our achievements are all over. We’ve done a lot for Ghanaians… Look at the One District One Factory, we’ve done over 47 in just three and a half years and someone did just one (Komenda Sugar Factory) from scratch without the raw materials. We’ve done Free SHS and even with Covid we’ve done a lot,” Mrs. Bawumia stressed.
