Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, the presidential aspirant of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), has launched an audacious initiative that he believes, if elected as president of Ghana, will ensure that the infrastructure needs of the country are met. In the view of Dr. Bawumia, the key to addressing the country's teething infrastructure challenges lies in the dedication of a percentage of the national revenue to the sector. A Bawumia-led government, he says, will reduce government expenditure by 3%, and that amount will go into the provision of infrastructure projects across the country to address the challenges.
"As a candidate, when I do my next budget, I am reducing government expenditure by 3 percent of GDP in favor of the private sector."
"This will help to realign expenditure from the public sector to the private sector.
