Former President John Dramani Mahama claims he is the only candidate out of the the four flagbearer aspirants of the National Democratic Congress(NDC), who keeps the governing New Patriotic Party(NPP) busy.
He explains that it has now become a habit for the NPP to organize news conferences and react to his views when he is not the only person seeking to be torch carrier of the party.
The former president questioned why he was the target of the NPP’s attack dogs when there were other candidates while speaking to attendees at the Professional Forum Dinner and Awards Night in Accra last Sunday.
Mr. Mahama questioned why he had been accused by certain NPP members of being an unfit candidate to lead the party before to the 2024 elections, yet he was the target of the most media attacks.
“They do not understand the gravity of the situation. I do think that for those of them who speak for the NPP, they do not understand the gravity of the situation.
But it is good for our party. We are going into primaries but as I said I thank you for your support. It should send a certain signal to the whole of Ghana that we are four candidates who picked the forms. Anytime one candidate speaks, they hold a press conference and respond.
And everybody is struggling and responding and yet they say that candidate you should not bring him because he is the worse candidate we have beaten him before. But when all the other candidate speak, in Hausa, they say ‘Shurum’, quiet. It shows that the game is exciting and as long as it is exciting, I would play the game”, he promised.
