A member of the communications team of the governing New Patriotic Party (NPP), Richard Nyamah, has described the flagbearer of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) as the only contestant in this year’s elections who has corruption tag hovering around his neck.

He said the country cannot be entrusted into the hands of John Dramani Mahama because his records in the corruption fight and other areas of the economy are way below average.

Mr Nyamah’s comments come after private legal practitioner and a member of the NDC, Godwin Edudzi Tamakloe, said President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo has no credibility in the fight against graft in Ghana.

In the view of Mr Tamakloe, Mr Mahama demonstrated his willingness and enough commitment in the fight against corruption when he was in office, unlike Mr Akufo-Addo, who he said has failed to show that level of commitment.
 
“Mahama is more than credible than Akufo-Addo,” he told Johnnie Hughes on New Day on TV3 Tuesday, September 15.

He added: “John Mahama has dared Akufo-Addo and his poodle, the Special Prosecutor, that you have been in power for almost four years, if he had been involved in any corruption matter, you have all the investigative bodies, and four years you have not been able to do anything.
