The New Patriotic Party’s (NPP) flagbearer, Dr Mahamudu Bawumia has pledged to be more accountable than former President John Dramani Mahama if elected president in the upcoming December elections.

He attributes this to his pursuit of an eight-year leadership term, unlike Mr. Mahama’s potential four-year service.

Dr Bawumia conveyed this message to various professional groups in Kumasi during his three-day campaign tour in the Ashanti Region on Tuesday.

He elaborated that an eight-year term would compel him to diligently work towards justifying his initial term and maintaining accountability, thereby securing a second term.
