Public Reaction to Dr. Bawumia’s Bold Phone Affordability Pledge 3

In a recent campaign rally, Dr. Bawumia, a prominent political figure, made an eye-catching promise: if elected, his administration would facilitate the purchase of mobile phones for as little as 1₵ or 2₵. This ambitious proposal has sparked intense debate among Ghanaians.

Supporters view it as a progressive move toward digital inclusion, emphasizing that affordable smartphones can empower citizens and enhance connectivity. They argue that bridging the digital divide is crucial for economic growth and social development.

However, skeptics question the feasibility of such a plan. They point out that smartphones typically cost significantly more than the promised amounts, and wonder how the government would subsidize the price difference. Some even label it a “fake promise,” suggesting that it’s a campaign tactic rather than a practical policy.
