The Campaign Coordinator of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), Kofi Adams has called on the New Patriotic Party (NPP) to stop comparing their flagbearer to the United States President-elect, Donald Trump.
According to Kofi Adams, the comparison is needless as the two septuagenarians are not in the same class.
Donald Trump defied all odds to win the much-publicised elections of the world's remaining superpower.
His victory, which has shaken the world, has been interpreted by supporters and sympathisers of the NPP as a sign that their flagbearer would also win the December polls in Ghana.
Widely publicised comments of the General Secretary of the NDC, Johnson Asiedu Nketia likening Nana Akufo-Addo to Donald Trump, the NPP sympathisers have said, portends the impending victory for the NPP.
But Kofi Adams speaking on Adom FM’s Midday News on Wednesday claimed the comparisons are needless as according to him, Nana Addo is not and can never be at par with Donald Trump.
“Trump’s victory should make NPP cry because Trump and Nana Addo are not in the same class…America has never voted against a sitting President and hence the vote was not against Obama who is a sitting President like John Mahama…,” he said.
He insisted that Nana Addo should rather be compared to Hillary Clinton who lost her first attempt at leading the Democratic Party to Obama and has also lost a major national election.
“Hillary lost in her first attempt to be the Democrats' candidate and lost in this major elections…Nana Addo also lost in NPP primaries, lost in elections twice and if there is someone who has been doing well, it is President Mahama…,” he said.
He further argued that just as Donald Trump won in certain states which ordinarily do not vote for Republicans, President Mahama also won in some constituencies NDC hitherto has never won.
“If American election has any bearing on Ghana's elections, then President Mahama must be allowed to continue as he is the one causing change…,” he said.

Kofi is making alot of sense. America has never voted against a sitting president, wow kofi thumps up. JM Toaso.
These NDC guys were waiting for a Hillary Clinton win to unleash on Ghanaian the most bizarrre analysis and comparison we could ever be subjected to. Without a message, the NDC has thrived on plagiarism of ideas, porrous propaganda and tribal politicking; setting Ghanaian against Ghanaian. Now Secretary Clinton lost the elections and they want someone to fall into a trap they had long prepared. Like Herman, they have fallen into their own trap, and Ghanaians will reject them this December!
If Americans saw the need to vote for a 70 year old as a president, Ghana must follow suit and refuse the 50 year old who still calls himself a youth full of incompetence and myopic thinking. Age with competence is better than youthfulness with incompetence."Nana B3 BA" Change is coming
Listen to this Ph00l of a national Organizer. Your General Secretary says Nana Addo is Donald Trump of Ghana and so is a loser. Now that Donald has won convincingly, you are shifting the goal post. In 2012 when Obama won, NDC was running all over the place saying since Obama has won, NDC will also win. They went ahead to rig the election big time to ensure they go in with Obama. now Trump has won and you are changing the pattern of history. Kofi, you are losing BIG time. Now there will be no twenty seven zero in your favour. even your own Volta Region has conceded. Change is coming --- the whole world is witnessing the wind of change.
