There is this dictum that "The length of a snake could be measured when it becomes totally horizontal." Day and night, the footprint of Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia becomes protuberant. At times, technical know-how is the weapon to bear out the validity and verity of one's sixth sense; it isn't all the time, because some impressions don't need to be ascertained scientifically; it is so patent. How can you tell me I need to burrow into other animals before arriving at the epiphany that nightingales and lyrebirds have the most breathtaking voices? It's something that goes without saying.

It wasn't novel of Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia to have enthralled and dumbstruck the journalists with his exotic performance in his media icebreaker. Whoever has been dogging him since he emerged at the pinnacle of partisan politics in 2009 till now would realize that that has been his political trait: he has the sublime flair to tutor zillions manifestly and feasibly, unlike the shriveled John Mahama. Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia is a conventional raconteur, nolens volens. It isn't staggering anymore, as to why he has been an unremitting headache to the NDC Party: exposing their mendacities, emasculating their claims, and ravaging their wiles also.

The landmarks of Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia that have made him leapfrog his opponents are:

Articulative Prowess: He enunciates his resolves to the multitudes using cogent, emphatic, and pregnant indications. Someone doesn't need to be au courant with in-depth knowledge before he/she can comprehend his thoughts. He is very composed when imparting his plans too.

Scrupulousness: His integrity is supreme to him, and thus he has zero records of corruption. He appreciates the reality through admission of the facts on the ground. He isn't nuts about adducing thin pretexts to buttress his fugly efforts.

Implementable Policies: As an advocate of this and has pulled off an army of it, one can say it will be a breeze for him to swing all his proposed policies. As someone who introduced MoMo interoperability, where the opponents labeled it 'unachievable' en route to that with massive monetary investment and has pioneered 33 distinct policies across all the sectors, including digitalization, education, health, agriculture, etc., as vice president, then what else can't he actualize as the president? He has the get-up and go to boost the capacity of his work as president.

Eagerness and Optimism: Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia has the zeal and the rosiness to parachute Ghana to the next economic and development phase. From scratch, he has showcased to all and sundry that he is visionary, inclined, and well-equipped to pilot the country into the global competition. He has the burning desire to protract the rich legacies of Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo.

Resilience: This has featured him into where he is now in partisan politics. As a person who has a thick skin to welcome censures impassively gives the token that he has been nurtured in the domain of leadership: he was procreated with it, therefore it is in his DNA. He accepts challengers and challenges them to take chances.

Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia is our only hope and has therefore given us clear-cut plans in case he is elected president. Let us endorse lengthy periods of office in order for accountability and transparency rather than to subscribe to someone who may be a sojourner.
