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.

This "MAN" again? Why do we even have elections every 4 years to listen to......... from THIS MAN? Oh Awurade sane behweyen!
You and ur entire family are the she*pps in cloth rather, compare during nPp time the price of cement and that of today and see the difference between, must u be visionless always if u no get common se*nse too. @kwarteng no family will also allow their daughter to marry an irresponsible and visionless man like u. You are talking of him staying in his dads house as if he doesn't even have one but yet he does have his own so what is ur problem now. No wonder ur dad don't even have any building cos u ur dad would have made ur Do*ggs be his inheritance since that is what u see as good cos u are visionless. you will never be able to buy a land to even talk of allowing ur children to inherit but continue staying at dod) prapra/hw3 so mame. Ayariga think before u talk
You are the one behaving like ostriches and no wonder ur dad don't even have a quarter plot. If ur dad had been able to build I think it would have been ur do*gg who will be leaving in that house since u don't agree with the man living in his dads house and after all ayariga knows self that Nana got his own house and that of the dad also belong to him so what is ur problem. He doesn't want a residential area but zongo so u can go to hell if u don't agree. so Sammy u want him to rent out that house and be staying in his own or what, the guy is not desperate and can decide to sleep in any of the houses. Cheap talks from cheap people like ayariga and supporters
He's living in his father's house so what, should he leave the house for you ayariga to come and stay in? Are you competing with nana for the presidency or mahama. Grow up man, think outside the box for even a cupboard monitor at the primary school, you won't be elect for come to think of a section leader. PEACEONLINE, please bring us newsworthy stories or article but no these please
What does this ***barred word*** man ayariga,wants from Akuffo Addo.Is Akuffo Addo the President, instead you attacking the incumbents your attacking opposition leader oo God save mother Ghana
I don't even see why we have to take serious anything this ***barred word*** political comedian says, we all know he's been paid, Mr. Ayariga, be your own man, learn to make your own decisions. Puppet!
your days are numbered
