The presidential candidate of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) John Mahama has boldly stated that Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia cannot hide behind a debate and must answer the five questions he posed to him.
According to John Mahama, Dr. Bawumia cannot hide behind a debate before he answers the five questions because Ghanaians are asking him five special questions.
Speaking to Ghanaians on a campaign platform John Mahama said, “You can’t hide behind a debate, you don’t need a debate to answer the five questions, when you asked Amissah Arthur 170 questions you did not agree to go and debate for him to answer them, Ghanaians are asking you five simple questions”.
John Mahama also used words from Bill Clinton’s campaign team in 1992 to describe Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia’s 50 questions to him.
The NDC presidential candidate said, “Let me take you down memory lane in 1992 there was an election in America, between Bill Clinton and George Bush snr, at the time the American economy was in recession, the way the Ghanaian economy is in crisis today, and people were talking about immigration, and people were talking about all kinds of useless things, you know what the Clinton people said, it is about the economy, stupid”.
“Today I am repeating those words this election is about the economy, stupid, it is not about all those other useless things, answer the five simple questions”. He boldly reiterated.
