Dr Jonathan Asante Otchere, political analyst at the University of Cape Coast, has boldly stated that former Metropolitan, Municipal and District Chief Executives (MMDCEs) are a bunch of political prostitutes.
The Political Science Lecturer questioned the former MMDCE’s credibility, loyalty, and integrity.
He further noted that they shift their allegiances as transactional and unprincipled.
His comments come over claims that over 200 MMDCEs have declared support for Dr Mahamaudu Bawumia despite meeting Kennedy Agyapong and Dr Bryan Acheampong.
Speaking on Starr Today, Dr Jonathan Asante Otchere stated, “What surprises me is the former MMDCEs, I do not want to see them as persons with integrity.
I think that they’re a bunch of political prostitutes who will stake a claim and go for the highest bidder because you just cannot be jumping from one person to another,” he stated.
He added, “Politicians must take their support with a pinch of salt”.
Meanwhile, Dr Bawumia, speaking during an open interaction with MMDCEs in Accra, made a bold declaration, stating, “Every president has handed over power to someone they contested. President Rawlings handed over power to Kufuor, they contested in 1996, isn’t it? President Kufuor handed over power to who? Atta Mills”.
“They contested again in 2000 and 2004, isn’t it? And then Atta Mills unfortunately passed away and gave it to John Mahama in terms of him being elected.
But the Mills-Mahama government handed over power to who? Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo, whom Mahama had contested.
And Nana Akufo-Addo has also handed over power to who? To John Mahama, whom he contested.
“So now, who is John Mahama going to hand over power to? That is it. It’s clear. It’s clear.
John Mahama will hand over power to Dr Mahamudu. That is what is being done.”, he boldly stated.
