Spokesperson for the John Mahama campaign Joyce Bawa Mogtari has appealed to the flagbearer of the New Patriotic Party Nana Akufo-Addo to give way for a much younger person to lead the party.
According to her, the former attorney general has contributed his bit to the growth of the country and must bow out now for other people in the Danquah-Busia-Dombo tradition to continue.
Speaking on the Morning Starr Wednesday, the deputy transport minister said Nana Addo will be retired from politics in December when Ghana goes to the polls.
“I think it is time for a change over in the type of politics the NPP runs. I think it is time for Akufo-Addo to give way to a younger version of himself. It's time for the President to retire Nana Addo so we can congratulate him for the good fight fought. I think Nana Addo’s time was with Kufuor,” she said.
She added that even though the President faced severe challenges in the initial part of his administration, he handled them with finesse.
“Though the NDC has faced some challenges Mahama has handled them professionally and it shows he is a leader. Anyone who has encountered the President and his vice President will tell you about their quality and the kind of ideas they espouse”.
Commenting further on the NDC’s boycott of the IEA’s debate, Mrs. Mogtari said the IEA has a history of bias against the ruling party and they will not allow it to continue.
“We raised concerns about bias and certain past conduct of the IEA and those issues are serious to us. There are issues we raised that they have not been able to respond to. Our participation in the IEA will give the IEA some credibility...in future, we might participate in the IEA debate but not now,” she said.

Ei auntie Joyce, I think you have got it wrong. If you have any advise, just advise your NDC party and yourself as well. Is better you change your surname Joyce because people with surname Joyce are unique in all respect, have a distinct way of positive thinking and behavior.
Madam, when you meet Donald Trump you tell him that. Old People are not less human. Madam you will be 72 years one day and if someone told you that how would you feel?
'The tree is no longer responsible for the fruit when it falls on the ground' This is how the NDC treats the aged in our society. If the late Atta Mills were to be alive would this girl tell him this? No doubt he died ,,,,,,,,,,,,
NDC is just letting Ghnaians know that there is something special about Nana and that is why he is their campaign message. Nana contested with more people and he won, so tell us who ur young but looking ol president contested with, unless he contested with u on ur bed. If U>S can vote a 70 year old as president then it tells u clearly that we are showing u and ur boss the exit of the flagstaff house, madam think before u open ur mouth cos there is nothing sensible in all u said.......change is comeing so continue panickin
JOHN MAHAMA AND THE NDC FEAR GOING TO JAI.L, HENCE THEIR VEHEMENT OBJECTION TO NANA AKUFO ADDO BECOMING THE NEXT PRESIDENT. THEY HAVE STOLE.N SO MUCH MONEY, THEY ARE HAVING NIGHTMARES OF SEEING NANA AKUFO ADDO SWORN IN AS PRESIDENT OF THE REPUBLIC OF GHANA. THE PERSONAL ATTACKS ON NANA AKUFO ADDO IS TO PREVENT HIM, ASCENDING THE PRESIDENCY, SO JOHN MAHAMA AND THE NDC PARTY WILL ESCAPE GOING TO JAIL. THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, JUST LAST WEEK ELECTED A 71 YEAR OLD MAN AS PRESIDENT, SO WHY IS JOHN MAHAMA AND THE NDC WORRIED ABOUT NANA' AGE???????????? VOTE THESE NDC THUG.S, THIEVE.S AND LIAR.S OUT IN 2016, TO SAVE FROM DOOM, GLOOM AND DESTRUCTION.
I was told this story when I was a little and I think Joyce Bawa needs to hear it. A little piglet asked the mother why the nose was big like that and the mother said, wait until you get to my age and you know why. Kwamena Awhoi, Ato Awhoi, ET Mensah, Fuastina Nelson, Benyiwa Doe, Shiery Aryeetey, Tsatsu Tsikata, just to mention a few have been in front line Politics before I was born. Thank God growing old is not meant for only one person. Think madam.
Joyce Bawa you are a fo*l. You have no right whatsoever to decide for the NPP,this shows how desperate and scared you are about the man Akufo Addo. NPP are not like the ndc fo*ls to give way to young idi*ts like Omane Boamah and co. I'm not going to count John mahama as a youth because he looks even older than the man you called old. NPP old person looks good and great than an ndc youth so I prefer Nana to John mahama the idi*t so called young president of the ndc. NPP is not a party for fo*ls and idi*ts so whether old or young can do the work. Donald Trump is 70 years old but America chose him to be their president just last week,when they have a president much you German than John the bull but they chose an old energetic rich man whose children are grown and also have children,America has nothing to lose to choose old or young but Ghana has everything to lose when they choose a young man with a with 12 concubines and 80 children who do you think have to vote for such a man to build infrastructure of his family and leave the poor Ghanaian to die. Joyce Bawa you have no right so mind your business of create,loot and share for NPP do not want to look like the ndc. NPP are nurturing their youth to grow enough with wisdom and intelligence before we give them the chance not for election sake like the ndc but for the sake of the country. You can't tell me ndc has a young candidate because your candidate looks much older than Nana Addo. Age is a number so get it if you are dumb. Nana looks much healthier and stronger with good skin than John mahama who is being fed with the tax payers money. Mo besu ara awu,Nana is the candidate most preferred in the country by both old and young and it would interest you to know Joyce Bawa that the youth need a father not a brother to handle their future. They know their father will see to their wellbeing and there is a saying in akan that Oheneba ne nea ne Papa tease so they prefer their father Nana Addo to John mahama who thinks he is a youth like them so can use them to build his stomach infrastructure and empire. NANA ALL THE WAY. NANA WO MMA ESU FRE WO.Okom de nyen oo,okom de yen ooo Papa akom de yen nobody says bro. Okom de yen.
When the young people like Mahama are gold diggers and all the do is to buy property in Dubai. Nana will not steal our money. Joyce you are a disgrace to womanhood
Joyce just reiterate what i have been saying all along. what is there to fear from 73 year old man? what legacy did he left behind as Attornet General and Foreign affair minister in kuffors government.? we the silent majority will retired him come Dec 7.NOISY PEOPLE
why do you fear this man like this. The mere mention of his name sends spine waves through your body.
