President John Dramani Mahama has thrown an open challenge again to opposition leader, Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo and his running mate Dr. Mahammudu Bawumia to a debate on the economy.
According to him, this will give Ghanaians an opportunity to know the true state of the Ghanaian economy because his main contender and his running mate have been churning out a lot of misinformation about the country’s economy.
“If we have a one-on-one debate, we will all have our statistics and our figures and Ghanaians will be able to see who is telling the truth and who is not telling the truth.”
This comes after an earlier accusation by Mr. Mahama that Nana Akufo-Addo has always been running away from a one-on-one debate with him.
However, the President in an interview on Volta Star Radio during his campaign tour of the Volta Region said: “when I threw the first challenge, I threw it because a lot of misinformation was being thrown all over the place and Nana Akufo-Addo and his running mate continue to misinform the Ghanaian public and that is why I said let us have a one-on-one debate.”
He stressed :“I believe that Ghanaians deserve a debate between myself and Nana Akufo-Addo and I hope that they will respond and rise to the occasion.”

Ffffoooolish mammal..***barred word***
"Does I care?" That a debate between the president and Nana will reveal to me that I'm not suffering? that there is no hardship, unemployment, high tariffs? I can't think far. Somebody should tell he president to start his handing over notes because it's not what he says that will influence our votes but how we feel.
You are a funny guy. People are asking questions oo.. "Why does Mahama want to debate someone he claims is 'not fit' to criticise him? He should go and debate Rawlings and Kufour....they have been presidents before." I can't think far. This is mad ness
Why did you snob IEA if you wanted a debate? Because your girlfriend Naana Opoku Agyemang who rigged for you in 2012 will not be there to support you. The vote is about when we have witness and not words.
RECEIVING CHEERS AND LOUD APPLAUSE FROM YOUR OWN SUPPORTERS MEANS NOTHING...HAVING A FACE OFF WITH YOUR OPPONENT IS THE BEST FOR EVERYBODY, SO WE CAN ALL TELL WHO IS MAKING A MOCKERY OF THE WHOLE NATION..NANA PLEASE GO AND FACE MAHAMA..WE CAN,T WAIT TO ENJOY THIS SHOWDOWN
Tell us what the misinformation is give us your statistics. We don't need a debate on this Dr Bawumia raised so many issues that shows you are incompetent we don't need a debate so you come and lie to us with cooked statistics IEA gave you the platform you turned it down
