President Akufo Addo has stated that former president John Dramani Mahama still firmly believes that Ghanaians are people who are quick to forget.
According to the president, if the National Democratic Congress (NDC) flagbearer was not holding unto that belief, he wouldn’t have summoned the courage to come back to Ghanaians and ask for their votes after five years of ‘dumsor’.
Akufo Addo made this pronouncement while speaking at an event held at the University of Cape Coast to launch the NPP’s Manifesto for the 2020 elections.
“I know that the NDC presidential candidate,His Excellency John Dramani Mahama, believes and says often that Ghanaians have a short memory. And he must hold strongly to this belief, otherwise, I doubt he would have summon the courage to be seeking another term after the disaster that was his presidency,” he asserted.
He added, “Ghanaians might have short memories, but not short enough for us to have forgotten the broken-down freezers, iron, and other household equipment, thanks to the five years of DUMSOR.”
President Akufo Addo insisted the free senior high school policy cannot be entrusted to John Mahama because he has never believed in it.
“For 8 years, John Dramani Mahama and the NDC kicked against Free SHS and also struggled to implement their watered-down version of the progressively free SHS…free SHS and free TVET can’t be entrusted into your hands.”
