"...Even Trump with all his wild ideas had the boldness to attend the debate. This morning he (Nana Addo) rather went on Peace FM and spoke slangs there . So I said if you can speak slangs then you should come to the debate and speak there...” said President John Dramani Mahama.
President Mahama who was speaking to party supporters in the Volta Region, Friday, made the above statement in reaction to various issues raised by the flagbearer of the opposition, New Patriotic Party, Nana Addo Danquah Akufo Addo during an interview on Peace FM, Friday.
Nana Akufo Addo had a one-on-one interview with host of Peace FM flagship programme, Kokrokoo, Kwami Sefa Kayi, Friday (December 2, 2016) morning.
Among other issues discussed during the interview, the NPP flagbearer dismissed claims of being divisive and tribalistic.
"When you’re about to deliver a speech or address a gathering, just say what you want to do for Ghanaians for Ghana to progress. That’s why I plead with you, If you assess what I’m saying and it makes sense, if you look at what I’m saying and there’s wisdom in it; vote for me and I will also honour my promise when elected” he added.
However, the President wonders why the NPP flagbearer is 'running' away from debates and rather granting interviews.
According to him, "he (Nana Addo) says so many things that are wrong. So I said come and sit down and let’s have a debate so that Ghanaians will know the truth; he run away. So after running away from the one-on-one, the NCCE gave the opportunity to all of us who want to be president to come and tell Ghanaians why we want to be president, that one was not one-on-one; so at least show respect to the Ghanaian people and come; that one too he run away.
I am the President; I should be the one reluctant to come to the debate because all of them will be attacking you because they want your post. But I am the first sitting president to take part in a debate, in 2012 I did it, and this year too, I engaged in the debate. But the leader of the opposition is rather running away, which is very strange. Even Trump with all his wild ideas had the boldness to attend the debate. This morning (Friday) he rather went on Peace FM and spoke slangs there . So I said if you can speak slangs then you should come to the debate and speak there” the President stated.

So when is mahama going to stop attacking nana Addo . What is there to debate bout ? Stop being sstuppid n do ur pfoolishh campaign. U going down December 7th.
Adolf John Mahama Hitler should give us a break.
Stop being childish and accept that you've failed Ghanaians. You've never been in control of managing the affairs of this nation. What a mess yo have caused!
At least we can see that Mahama is more accommodating, ready to sit down and debate with other presidential candidates. Nana Addo would have thrown worse bombs like all die be die, yen akan fuo and etc. It was better he did not come he would have let Ghanaians see his true colors. If you are clean like Mahama, you would have nothing to hide. He cannot even stand other presidential candidates. You remembered how Hassan bullied him on IEA platform? Nana Addo is afraid of not only Mahama but the other presidential candidates as well because he has too many cobwebs he does not want people to see. Nana Addo cannot defend his conflicting ideas and policies such as reducing taxes and increasing infrastructure and salaries, which do not appear feasible so he continues to flee. He can only appear on IEA where he is sure of some privileges like giving him a stool to stand on. moma yenka na yen ani nfrae
NPP members are just ignorantly campaigning for John Mahama and the NDC
What you are saying is not what is important, mr President, okay. Yes, you are the sitting president and that is why it's incumbent on you to provide jobs. Where are the jobs for our teeming graduates? Please let face facts and be truthful to ourselves. You said you were putting up day schools to solve shortages in school admission but some of these schools are wrongly sited. And I think it a drain on our resources. I have not been comfortable with your wavering posture. You cancelled nurses allowance, Nana Addo said he will bring it back, then quickly you paid them the allowance. Watching from the fringes, it looks to me that each thing that Nana promised to do when voted president, which you doubted him, you are now saying you are going to do them. Now, what do I do? Do I give my vote to the originator of the ideas or the one who has been copying? I hate having builders botch up job. I can't think far.
Even at the debates there were no challenging or tricky questions being asked. It's important that Nana Addo didn't take part. Looking at what happened here in the states there were questions that would test your knowledge in depth but this one was straight forward questions that a Junior high school pupil can answer with ease. Get knowledgeable people to run the debate next time
NANA IS NOT THE TYPE YOU CAN BLACKMAIL MR RESIDENT . ENOUGH OF YOUR LIES AND HIPOCRACY, WHY ALWAYS WANT TO TALK ON ***barred word*** ISUES ? NANA WILL NEVER DEBATE WITH YOY IF IT IS ORGANISED BY OMANE BOAMAH,S NCCE. NANA AND HIS TEAM ARE NOT KIDS OK. WHY DID YOU REFUSE IEA DEBATE?
