President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo has chided the National Democratic Congress, (NDC) Flagbearer John Dramani Mahama for refusing to debate Dr Mahamudu Bawumia.
During a tour in the Northern Region, President Akufo-Addo praised the track record of Dr Bawumia, he added that the New Patriotic Party (NPP) Flagbearer is trustworthy, and consistent on policies that benefits Ghanaians.
President Nana Addo argued that only through a debate will Ghanaians understand who will be a better manager of the country.
President Nana Addo said “Bawumia is someone who is reliable and is someone who can be trusted and someone who is clear-minded and that is why the majority of Ghanaians are saying that they want Mahama to debate Bawumia on the key issues of our country. Why is John Mahama running away from the debate? Bawumia says he is ready any day to debate. So why is Mahama running away from the debate.”
He added that, “The people of Ghana deserve the debate so they can see who is doing what and who is saying what. Mr Mahama, which is which? What should the Ghanaian people take from you as your position on the Free SHS policy? Is it safe with you and are you going to continue with it or are you going to cancel it? Nobody should be allowed to be president if he can’t answer this question straightforwardly”.
