Former President Kufuor has commended Vice President and Presidential Candidate of the NPP, Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, for exhibiting good conduct and unifying traits over the years. 

In an exclusive  interview with Asempa FM, the respected former President said he has, over the years, observed Dr. Bawumia's good conduct, describing him as a "unifier", which he said, "is good for the country."

"I have observed his good conduct.

He is not divisive," said the former President. 

"Everyone knows he is a Muslim but he has a great relationship with Christians.

It is very important because, in this country, many try to use religion to create a wedge." 

"He is also a northerner, but he gets along so well with everybody."

The former President, who is credited with spotting Dr. Bawumia and getting him to the Central Bank, spoke highly of Dr. Bawumia, expressing his confidence in the Vice President to transform the country as President. 

Rallying support for Dr. Bawumia, the former President said the Vice President has demonstrated his understanding of what is required of a modern leader to transform a country, through his remarkable pursuit of technology and digitalisation, which he said, is applicable in all aspects of governance and economic transformation
