Debate Bawumia if you want to be President again – Afenyo-Markin tells Mahama
Majority Leader Alexander Afenyo-Markin has asked the National Democratic Congress (NDC) flagbearer, John Dramani Mahama, to accept Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia's (NPP) presidential debate challenge.
Dr. Bawumia has challenged Mr Mahama to a debate before of the December polls, but the 2024 Mahama Campaign Team has declined, claiming that there is nothing left to talk about the economy and that Mahama does not require a debate to sell his agenda.
Addressing journalists in Parliament, Alexander Afenyo-Markin emphasized that John Mahama must accept the offer.
“We’re calling on Mahama to accept the invitation by Dr Bawumia for a debate. We don’t want politics of insults, name-calling, insinuations and all. If indeed he’s determined to come back and wants to tell Ghanaians that he’s a changed man, I’m calling on him to stand shoulder-to-shoulder with Dr Bawumia and debate on the issues."
“Dr Bawumia is ready to put the cards on the table. If he says we have not performed as a government, it’s only through a debate that he can put a point across,” the Majority Leader said.
