Former President John Dramani Mahama, flagbearer of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), has criticized Vice President Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia for alleged dishonesty during a recent media engagement.
Speaking on Tuesday, August 27, during his campaign tour in Ada, Greater Accra Region, Mahama accused Bawumia of making misleading statements during the encounter held on Sunday, August 25—just a day after the NDC launched its manifesto.
Mahama described Bawumia’s “sudden stammering posture” as evidence of dishonesty and ulterior motives, casting doubt on his credibility.
According to Mahama, this behavior was a clear sign of falsehood, asserting that “smooth talkers” like Bawumia revealing their true colors when they falter.
He further alleged that the NPP’s media event was a calculated attempt to divert attention from the NDC’s new policy proposals.
Mahama also accused the NPP of using the media encounter as a strategic diversion.
“You know, the intention for doing that media encounter, the next day after we had announced our manifesto was to turn the attention of Ghanaians from the NDC manifesto,” Mahama stated.
