‘The driver’s mate will crash us even further into the ditch’

Mahama and Bawumia

Flagbearer of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), John Dramani Mahama, has responded to comments made by his main contender, the New Patriotic Party (NPP) flagbearer, Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, asserting that Ghana needs a "licensed driver" to steer the country's future.

Mr Mahama’s remarks come as both candidates intensify their campaigns ahead of the upcoming elections.

Dr. Bawumia, during a recent media engagement, highlighted that he has never served as President before, unlike his opponent, and urged the electorate to vote for him to bring fresh leadership to the country. He positioned himself as the better choice for voters seeking change.

In response, Mr Mahama, while engaging with communities in the Greater Accra Region as part of his campaign tour, criticised Bawumia and the NPP for what he termed a "failed attempt" to distract Ghanaians from the NDC’s manifesto launch.
