The Ashanti Regional Chairman of the ruling New Patriotic Party (NPP), Mr. Bernard Antwi-Boasiako, popularly known as Chairman Wontumi, has urged former President John Dramani Mahama to accept the ‘debate challenge’ so that he can have the opportunity to expose the so-called lies of the Vice-President and NPP Presidential Candidate, Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia.
He said the debate would provide a good platform for the former president to adequately substantiate the claims by him and his party members that Dr. Bawumia is a pathological liar.
“I think Mr. Mahama has a very fine opportunity to sink Dr. Bawumia once and for all, and I will encourage him to accept the challenge without hesitation,” Chairman Wontumi stressed.
The NPP Regional Chairman said he was ready to quit the ruling party to join the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC) if Mr. Mahama accepted the ‘debate challenge’ and succeeded in exposing Vice-President Dr. Bawumia as a liar.
There have been loud calls for the NDC flagbearer to accede to the challenge thrown at him by Dr. Bawumia to engage in a one-on-one debate on the economy.
Although the opposition party has jettisoned the challenge, describing it as a bait, many observers hold the view that it will be a good platform to assess the two leading candidates prior to the crucial elections, come December 7, 2024.
