The Flagbearer of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), John Dramani Mahama, has urged Ghanaians to be mindful of deception and vote out this government for abysmal performance.
Speaking at the launch of the NDC’s national campaign in Tamale on Saturday, July 27, Mr Mahama said the argued that the youth cannot afford to waste another four years trying out the over-hyped Dr. Mahamadu Bawumia, whose credibility has sank very low as a result of his own lies over the past eight years.
Mahama emphasised that Dr. Bawumia does not deserve the opportunity to lead the country, given his past performance, stating that the youth are clamouring for an experienced hand who will create opportunities for them.
“Four years is enough to reset Ghana. Four years of good leadership is better than 8 years of a dishonest leader. It is not about how long you serve but about how well you serve” – he emphasized.
The former President added “The youth of this country don’t have four years to waste. The youth of this country are in a hurry to create the opportunities that will make them live a dignified life. They are not going to try somebody and four years take him off. The youth want an experienced hand.”
He urged the electorate to consider the track records of the candidates and make an informed decision that will benefit the nation.
The NDC flagbearer stressed that the youth are clamouring for an experienced hand to create real opportunities for them, implying that his own leadership would better serve the country’s future.
“On December 7, Ghana must change course, we cannot solve the crisis in which we are with the same people who caused the problem.
Several years ago, somebody [President Akufo-Addo] came and said try me, the result is what we’re seeing today. Today, another person [Dr Bawumia] has come and he’s also saying try me.
“And he’s saying the same things the one who has put us in this ditch said eight years ago. And what they are saying is that if they don’t deliver after four years, change me.
