The flag bearer of the All People’s Congress (APC), Hassan Ayariga, has taken a swipe at Nana Akufo-Addo, claiming the 72-year-old New Patriotic Party (NPP) flag bearer still lives in his father’s house despite his age.
Apart from saying Mr Akufo-Addo lacks the capacity to manage Ghana, Mr Ayariga said at 72, Nana Akufo-Addo should retire from politics.
Speaking on Class FM on Monday, September 26, Mr Ayariga said he had many successful businesses across the country which made him the best nominee for president in the December polls though he was not as boastful about his accomplishments as the flag bearer of the Progressive People’s Party (PPP), Dr Papa Kwesi Nduom, who he claimed was going round describing himself as ‘adwumawura’ – creator of jobs.
Talking about his accomplishments, Mr Ayariga said: “I made my first $1million at the age of 24 without working with any government. I have never been in a government position; I have never worked as a Minister for you to say I have stolen government money. I built my first house at the age of 22…; at age 72, my senior and my father, Nana Akufo-Addo, is still living in his father’s house. At this age 72, I would have retired from politics and been advising young men of this country to move this country forward and not contest with them anymore.”
The former People’s National Convention flag bearer accused Nana Akufo-Addo and Dr Nduom of contributing to the hardship in the country. According to him, the two nominees have served in government before and, therefore, “they have contributed in building this country”.
“So, if they go round telling Ghanaians Ghana is in crisis and Ghana has become a difficult place for us to live and that we need a change, yes, let’s accept and believe that we need change but that change will not be a change from the NDC to any of them because if Ghana is in crisis, these people are part of the problem why Ghana is in crisis today, because they were given the opportunity to serve and have served,” the 2012 People’s National Convention presidential candidate explained.
Mr Akufo-Addo was the Foreign Affairs Minister and Attorney General in the erstwhile Kufour-led government while Dr Nduom served as the Minister of Private Sector Development.

Is it because your i-r-r-e-s-p-o-n-s-i-b-l-e father who was only interested in women's bottos could not leave you even a thatch house? You must grow. Tweeaaa!
Governance is not joke.,niether is it for ***barred word*** and indecisive mind.It is for accomplised ,great thinkers and the wise.
this ndc paid remoted 1d110t is back again to work for them. u want to win power and u attack the opposition? only a fake can do this. i am happy that nana always ignores him bcos he has no relevance even to his own family
I think we should talk logic now since you want to. Is Akofo Addo the only child of the father ? Now is he the only person inheriting the father's properties? With all the once that he has sold and not replacing them how is he helping his children and grandchildren and their children. He need to build on what the father has left for him in order to help generations after him. You think it's logical for a man of his stature who is 72 years old to be living in his father's house? Is that your kind of logic. What example is he setting for us the young generations. This is the problem with you the followers of the old man, only you thinks logical. Go ahead!!
ayaricow again !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The Devil is cunning & a loose con. Folks are mad @ this guy & by the time they OPEN their eyes the election is over & whoever might have won did so clearly thanks to the DEVIL cunning ways.It chooses anyone to do his cunning & deceptive deeds Huh politricks.All those being piss off by this guy's UTTERANCES are joining the devil cunning ways.
Logic is not common in your house. If the bible says a good man will leave inheritance for his children's children then Nana ADDOS father was good cause he left that inheritance for his son who in turn will leave it to his children. So now, you see the sense-less-ness in your conclusion?
Well, that tells me his father, unlike yours, led a good life, so his children don't have to look for a place to sleep but can move on to greater prospects. Can you imagine the necessary number of houses if all 6 billion people on the planet were to live by your logic?
True, because he decided not to be corrupt like your master or sell his conscience for money like you period!
ayariga you are uncivilised and uncltured. So if you don't know anything about him just ask. Common sense is not common to ayariga. Nana Addo has built a house at east legon, he is not greed like you ***barred word***
