The National Youth Organizer of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), Salam Mustapha, emphasized that former President John Mahama is deeply associated with corruption, setting him apart from the NPP flagbearer Dr. Mahamadu Bawumia, who is free from any corruption allegations.
Mustapha confidently stated that having closely worked with Dr. Bawumia, he can attest to the fact that the latter has never engaged in corrupt practices.
Furthermore, the NPP youth leader issued a challenge to anyone possessing evidence of corruption against Dr. Bawumia to present it. He pointed out that the NDC cannot issue a similar challenge on behalf of President Mahama due to his tainted history of corruption.
I am against corruption, and I am a firm advocate for the fight against corruption. I have worked with a man who is not corrupt and that is why we have thrown the challenge that if anyone has any iota of truth that Dr. Bawumia is involved in any corrupt activity, let them bring it. And till date, of all the things they can say about Dr. Bawumia, they can’t say he is corrupt. Because that is his nature.
In the case of President John Mahama, he stated that the corruption tag is not merely a perception, but rather supported by concrete evidence.
He is the first president that that has proof of corruption about him. And I am not the one saying it. The crown courts in London points to him as having been complicit in the airbus scandal. For him he is super corrupt, he is fantastically corrupt, he is chronically corrupt and he is overly corrupt. And I am not the one saying it. There is evidence of it on him.
Salam Mustapha also questioned the validity of the recent polls carried out by UK-based Fitch Solutions, showing President Mahama leading with 54%. He argued that Fitch’s findings cannot be trusted as they are based on data from Global Info Analytics, a source lacking credibility.
It’s a lie. We have checked with Fitch. They have not done anything. They went and pick data from Musa Dankwah. He has never done any research that is accurate. I am a researcher. So I understand the tenets of research. To say the NDC will win with 99% in Oforikrom is out of place. I don’t know which kind of research will bring this outcome?.
