The Minority is still standing its ground against New Patriotic Party (NPP) flagbearer Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia's challenge to face the National Democratic Congress (NDC) John Mahama in a debate.

This comes after Majority Leader Alexander Afenyo-Markin in Parliament urged Mr Mahama to accept the challenge.

Dr Bawumia has challenged Mr Mahama to a debate ahead of the December polls but the 2024 Mahama Campaign Team has declined the offer, arguing that nothing is left to debate about the economy and insisting that Mahama does not need a debate to sell his message.

Yussif Jajah explained that Mr Mahama already hosted the media some weeks ago and that Dr Bawumia must pass that test before his request may be considered by the opposition party.
