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.

And so what? Have you heard about inheritance and being a heir??? F--lish talk.
STUP1DITY MAKE YOU ayariga ***barred word*** Okay.
Akuffo Addo snd stole Ghana's money to build that house his st.u.u.p.i.d. son is still living in after selling all the others to become president at 72-uselsss i.d.i.o.t
This man is not proper that all.
Your daddy couldn't build one for you to inherit that why you speak like that. The Bible says a good father leaves an inheritance for his children's children
When people say individuals like Mahama Ayariga are being sponsored by the NDC,one is tempted to believe it. How can it be explained that an opposition party leader would make it his business to attack other opposition leaders instead of the incumbent. If Ayariga would accused others of making life difficult because they were part of previous governments, what about the President?
who does Ayariga wants to live in the house? the man lives in a house given to him by his dad who also happens to be a former president, do we expect him to sell the house or keep guinea fowls in it? as such that he has also built houses and owns business
So if Your Father owns and was living in a house and he is dead and gone, you dont have a right to live in there. Massa, let me tell you It would be wrong if your father was a watchman at GNTC and you decide to go and sleep in front of the store even when your father is no more. That is what I would classify as news. This one ebe skin pain or what
Why are we behaving like ostriches? is Nana Addo living in his Fathers house or not.
Paid agent!!! Tell us what you are going to do differently to improve the lot of Ghanaians. Why are you focusing on the NPP, its the ruling Govt's record that's being interrogated. You are just a statistic in the political landscape. You are not worthy of a President. Full of boool sheeet!!!!!! Ignoramos. Tweeaaaaaa!!!!
