The flagbearer of the NPP, Vice President Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, has addressed the derogatory comments made by former President John Mahama, asserting that such insults will not prevent Mahama from facing defeat in the upcoming elections.
In response to Bawumia’s 50 questions, Mahama, who had initially posed 5 questions to the Vice President, resorted to using terms such as “stupid” and “useless” to characterize Bawumia.
This election is about the economy, stupid”, Mahama said while campaigning in the North.
It’s not about all those other useless things about who built how many compost plants. Could you answer the five simple questions? And you can’t hide behind the debate. I just wanted to let you know that you don’t need the discussion to answer five simple questions.
In response to Mahama’s comments, Dr. Bawumia asserts that Mahama has turned to insults due to his impending defeat in the election.
So, many people have seen what is going to happen so they are worried and scared…They know they are going to lose. They are scared. Because of that, they have started the insults. The insults have already started.
The Akans have a saying that long talk does not buy a horse. Isn’t it? Long talk doesn’t buy a horse. I want to add that insults cannot buy a horse. You can keep insulting all the time, it won’t change anything. You will still lose the election.
Dr. Bawumia stated that the positive contributions of the New Patriotic Party throughout the nation are clear, and he is confident that Ghanaians will acknowledge this by casting their votes in favor of him and the party in the upcoming elections on December 7.
The reason why the NPP will win is because of the work we have done. Today, I have inspected the ongoing University project here in Ahafo. I have also inspected ongoing hospital projects here and we are also in the process of making Mim a district on its own.
We promised the people of Ghana in 2016 that we would implement Free Senior High School if they voted for us. When we said that, the former President said we were deceiving Ghanaians. He said it was a 419 policy and I told him it is possible. Since 2017, we have brought Free SHS in Ghana and 5.7 children have benefitted.
