Former Speaker of Parliament, Prof Aaron Mike Oquaye, has urged Ghanaians to recognize and embrace the unique contributions of Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia will bring on board should he assumes presidency.
He emphasized that not supporting Dr. Bawumia would be akin to rejecting a blessing.
Reflecting on Dr. Bawumia’s impact in Ghana’s political history, particularly his pivotal role in the 2012 election petition, Oquaye Snr. highlighted how this case brought significant attention to the importance of pink sheets in the electoral process.
“When there were controversies about election matters and we had gathered a lot of information, Frank Davies and others had toiled. But how to put it together into an accepted formula for court, that work was done by Dr. Bawumia. Today, he has one more name called ‘Mr. Pink Sheet’.
“All matters regarding how we use pink sheets to address the controversies of elections, that was the man who stood in court. You and I were not there, but you could see the star in him. I say it is a gift. If you do not take advantage of such a gift, then you do not want the good things in life. You hate the blessings of God,” he said.
