The commendation, attributed to Prof. Collier, a respected development economist and author, highlights Dr. Bawumia’s intellectual capabilities and places him among a select few whom the professor regards as exceptionally gifted.
The statement has generated considerable interest across academic and political circles in Ghana, underscoring Dr. Bawumia’s academic pedigree in addition to his prominent role in national leadership.
The endorsement is seen as a strong affirmation of Dr. Bawumia’s academic foundations. As Vice President of Ghana and a leading figure in the country’s economic and policy discourse, Dr. Bawumia’s educational achievements have frequently been cited by both supporters and critics.
Prof. Collier’s remark adds to this narrative by emphasising the intellectual promise he saw in Dr. Bawumia during his time at Oxford University.
