The National Democratic Congress (NDC) vice presidential candidate has challenged the New Patriotic Party (NPP) vice presidential candidate to an open debate prior to the December 7 presidential election.
In a one-on-one discussion with Kwami Sefa Kayi on Peace FM’s premier morning program, “Korokoo,” Dr. Mathew Opoku Prempeh stated that given they were both Education Ministers for their respective parties, it would be reasonable for Prof. Jane Naana Opoku-Agyemang to agree to a debate.
He asserts that the running mate for the NDC shouldn’t follow in the footsteps of her employer, who is “running away” to challenge his boss, Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia.
“They ought to set up a debate between the two former ministers of education if John Mahama, the leader of the National Democratic Party, is afraid and avoiding international discourse. Each of us worked as a minister for four years. “Why is she afraid?” he asked.
“The debate can be in her [Professor Jane Naana Opoku-Agyemang’s] bedroom and I will still win,” the speaker continued.
President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo issued the challenge after asking former President John Dramani Mahama to debate Vice President Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia. Mahama seems hesitant to do so.
