Vice President, Dr. Mahamadu Bawumia, says it will be suicidal for Ghanaians to hand over the administration of the country back to former President, John Dramani Mahama.
Dr. Bawumia says the living conditions of Ghanaians will be worse off if John Mahama and the NDC return to office.
Former President John Dramani Mahama, who is on a campaign tour across the country to reclaim the NDC ticket for the 2020 election, has accused government of poor economic management.
He accused the NPP of lying its way to power and failing to deliver on its audacious promises including one district one factory, one constituency one million dollars, one village one dam among others.He specifically took a swipe at Dr. Bawumia, saying he was only good at giving lectures on the economy whiles they were in opposition, but he’s struggling to manage same now that they are in power.
But speaking at a meeting with Metropolitan, Municipal and District Chief Executives (MMDCEs) in Accra, Dr. Bawumia said the best way for the NPP to prevent the NDC from returning to power is to drum home the achievements of the NPP within these few months in office.
“I hear the incompetent one says he wants to come back. He wants to come and do more damage. As if he didn’t do enough damage? Well, we are waiting for him. You have to remember what happened when we came to office. After many years of incompetent economic management, you cannot describe it any other than incompetent economic management.”
“After many years of such economic management, the people of Ghana gave us the privilege to change course, but after just 20 months in office, the difference is clear. There is a big difference, if you look at the macroeconomic indicators, and they don’t like looking at it because it makes them look bad. It exposes their incompetence,” Dr. Bawumia added.
‘Ghana needs experienced hands, not economics lecturers’ – Mahama
John Mahama had earlier taken a jab at Bawumia over the current economic challenges, saying Ghana needs an experienced persons and not ‘economics lecturers’ who merely engage in theories.
While addressing delegates of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) at Tatale last week, Mahama said experienced persons will better understand the situation and manage it in a way that will bring about stability rather than “economic lecturers who are just theorists.”
“You can do all the propaganda you like to win political power, when you come to government; the reality of the people’s life will expose you,” he said.

Mahama and his apparatchiks think they can wean themselves of their incompetent tag by attacking Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia. But let them know that Ghanaians are wide awake. Even though we are in difficult times, but the discerning Ghanaian knows that it takes quite an effort to fix what has been deeply broken. So we know who manages Ghana better and we will certainly make our judgement in 2020. Let Mahama and his NDC continue tickling themselves and laugh.
That is why we all need to be in school. There is a different between we are doing and we have done this,Do not only listen but watch ,read, search and understand. But for us who thing a good leader is the one who think outside the box Mr Mahamah is out of the equation
Even Nana knows that you are an empty barrel, you made too much noise, now you have the job so keep quiet and fix the mess. Please we are begging you opened up the Hospital in Legon, I went there the other time and you simply cannot understand why such an edifice should be left to rot, I here there are other projects all across the country. It is not for you to tell us who is competent or not, we are sensible enough to know the difference.
What is Microeconomic indicators to the regular citizen. The NPP party is just like a play boy. We confided in you and you broke our heart oh Lecturer Bawumia. I have sterilized my thumb for 2020
Bawumia is a joker! Whoaat? I dongerrit!!
So Bawumia still think Ghanaians are buying his stories in the midst of cedi depreciation and the hardship which his boss has confirmed? It's not up to you to say you've managed the economy better. The electorate will do that and from all indication they say things are hard. Wait and see?
Why not keep your cool and allow the man to contest. Respect yourself and your position. You sat and consciously watched the 'demise' of your own close brothers Hamid and Boniface to be booted out of the limelight. Watch out!!!!
Am very surprised about how Mahama still think Ghanaians are ***barred word*** because the votes are now understand what they need in future not what they will spend today, some of us are not politicians but we have many to let Mahama understand we are not in 19th centuries, in 19th centuries when you lie or give ghc20 for voter,he will just vote without thinking about future of their kids but now we’re 20 centuries we read and look at vision where you want to move and direction of the country before we vote, what NDC understand is how to win elections but not to build the nation.
What does Incompetent Mahama thinks about Ghanaians.For eight years you supervised the most corrupt regime in the forth republic. Please forget about NPP and tell us what you failed to achieve and what you will do differently when voted to power. You just want to come and waste the little that has been gathered, but trust you me, it will never happen.
pls ignore the incompetent one. focus on the good work u are doing and leave him to us to deal with him. he is a greedy bastard and the father of all greedy bastards.
