The CEO of Forestry Commission, Kwadwo Owusu Afriyie, popularly known as Sir John is very positive the political demise of the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC) could become a reality, sooner than later.
Sir John believes the NDC will not come to power until Vice President Dr Mahamudu Bawumia has had the opportunity of serving a full eight-year term of office.
The former General Secretary of the ruling party, was speaking in an interview with Kwami Sefa Kayi, host of Peace FM's morning show 'Kokrokoo'.
Explaining why he thinks Bawumia will be president after Akufo-Addo, he said: "it is factual that the ruling government has performed tremendously well. After the mess left behind by the previous administration headed by John Dramani Mahama; the damage they caused, and the way this government has fixed the economy, if it were to be related to an examination, Akufo-Addo will poll 80 percent.
"He even qualifies to get 90 percent. We want to tell John Mahama that even with the ten percent left, NDC is still not an option. It is only Akufo-Addo we want…by 2020 Ghanaians will endorse Akufo Addo again," he added

Nana Addo should have won 2008 cold chop because of the hardwork JAK did. However, Nana decided he did not need JAK for his campaign. He also decided he could declare Okyehene to be at the same level as the Golden Stool. Because of this Asanteman turned against NPP and sent it into opposition for 8 years. To win the 2016 election, Nana had to go to Manhyia with JAK to beg for forgiveness. After this act of humility he got 1.6 million votes in Asante and this gave him his great victory. So NPP coming to power was nothing to do wuth Bawumia. If NPP wants opposition for 16 years it should dare deny Alan after Nana steps down.
You are either high on something or just plain ***barred word***. Everybody in Ghana knows how npp won in 2026 and Dr.Bawumia was very key. Your hatred for Bawumia will kill you.
So Sir John dont know that Bawumia has to win npp presidential primaries before he succeed Akofu Addo. Or he has won alredy?. for me if he wins the primaries i have no problem. But can he beat Alan Kyerematen?
You haven't fulfilled your numerous promises to Ghanaians yet but talking about Bawu What? A lair?
Even if there is no alternative i will never wish for this kind of president and his vice.
Bawumia is just a banker who knows nothing about NPP politics and for that matter Ghanaian politics. imposing him as NPP running mate caused NPPs defeat in 2008 and 2012. It took a well structured campaign strategy by both NPP foreign branches and internally to have won the 2016 presidential elections
After all this ***barred word*** you are blowing your horns already. you think we are ***barred word*** right? if you guys win the next election it means Ghanaians just like Akufo Addo but not because of what he has done. if you want to know how corrupt you are wait until you are out of power. Kwasiasem
Bawu who? apuut)))). do you think Ghanaians and NPP want another substandard govt again?
Bawumia marketable for where? Has he finish solving the 5.4 cedi depreciation? Can northerners make him President? Nobody can force Bawumia on NPP and Ghanaians. Bawumia should simply abort whatever Presidential ambition he is nursing
If npp dare to select anybody other than Dr.Bawumia, the party will die. Why? Because Bawumia is a northerner? He is the most intelligent and most marketable.
