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.

Oh slaughter your aged father so to give way to your elder son to handle your mother effectly. Woman with no motherly substance
Are you afraid of losing power to Nana Addo? Time will tell!!
JIM's performance and vision has not enriched the argument for only youthfulness...It has weakened the argument for youthfulness without considering good vision...I am done..
Hey look at her. U are in a glass house and u are throwing stones. Is age should be to your advantage so what is your beef now?
Bankrupt comment from bankrupt brain. See what the "youthful" Manaha and his youthful cohorts have done to the nation. Bankrupt brains at work.
Where from this one too, Nana Addo is old, go and say that to your Uncle. If Nana Addo were to be your Uncle wouldn't you have like it. Young girls like you have been give post so u think that is all. let me tell you, CHANGE IS COMINIG N IT'S COMING for YOU 2.
This one too does it deserve insults. It is just a vie expressed and look at the insults. Untouchable god of NPP
You better ***barred word*** you corrupted souls.Criminals your time is up
We already have young leadership what are we seeing,lady don't bring yourself,i don't blame you,you've ate to your fill,bonch of criminals
***barred word*** BA DZI WO FIE ASEM. Use you sense to hhelp John Maha pay up all those billions of internbal debts owed to nurses, jusac. teachers etc. ***barred word*** appointees like you are doing more harm than good to the Mahama cause. You are all vampires just engaged in the create , loot and share brigade. NANA is coming to jail you all. That is why NDC was backing Allan to be NPP [Presidential candidate even though they saw that NPP supporters wanted Nana. We do not dictate to party members like NDC does. We are very democratic not dictators. Worry about Maha being kicked out in December and leave NPP matters out. It is very hopeless on your part to be talking of NPP leadership matters less than 3 weeks to elections. you ***barred word*** paa. Talk about your party NDC.
