Yes, four years of President John Mahama was four years of dumsor.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhen his government realised that they could become rich merchants of dumsor, they went ahead recklessly to sign excess take-or-pay power purchasing agreements (PPAs) that by the time NPP took over the Ghana government was forced to pay up to $1 billion a year mainly for power we did not need and we did not use,\u201d He recalled while addressing the media in Bolgatanga on Friday<\/p>\n<p>He said it was only recently that the Akufo-Addo government managed to convince some companies to accept renegotiated packages.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cImagine the billions of dollars wasted on excess power that Mahama contracted and what it could have been used. Is this the president we should bring back for another four years after which he would not be accountable to you?<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt is shocking that John Mahama still harbours this silly dream of becoming president again. For what exactly, we all don\u2019t know. We want to ask John Mahama, if has he left something at the Jubilee House that we are unaware of. He should tell the good people of Ghana so we can retrieve it for him to go home and rest in peace,\u201d He demanded<\/p>\n<p>According to him, John Mahama inherited an oil-rich economy and without any global crisis to deal with he created his crisis that by 2014 the cedi was the worst-performing economy and by 2015 Ghana had applied for an IMF bailout and by 2016 Ghana had seen the birth of Unemployed Young Graduates Association.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAt some point, he gave up and said he wasn\u2019t a magician to provide jobs. He told us that he had run down the economy and that the flesh was all gone and left with bones. Schools did not even have common chalk! The situation was hopeless. The leader himself was rudderless and inept.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He described John Mahama as a lazy president then adding that he mentioned in an interview that he usually got to the office at 10 am and left by 4 pm.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIn his entire stay in office as president, his cabinet met just about 40 times. Ladies and gentlemen that\u2019s less than once a month! The civil servants at the presidency during Mahama\u2019s time in office told us stories of loitering around with nothing to do. In fact, the vice president Paa Kwesi Amissah Arthur clocked in more working hours than his boss.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHe reported to his office daily at 8 am sharp and often worked through 7 pm. No wonder why by 2018, Mr Amissah Arthur had set up a campaign office in East Legon, Accra, preparing to contest John Mahama for the leadership of the NDC. But, we all know what happened to him. He too died, suddenly and mysteriously.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The NPP National Youth Organizer disclosed that President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo stays in the office working after midnight and does not drink alcohol.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cVice President Mahamudu Bawumia also does not drink alcohol. He is not lazy. He comes up with solutions like DRIP to provide construction equipment to fix our roads in our districts and not to buy private cars for pretty women for all manner of benefits.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis is the stark difference between a serious person and a person who leads for the perks. John Mahama just did not take his job seriously then and would not take it seriously if you made the mistake of bringing him back. Now that he doesn\u2019t have to account for his leadership and seek another term, he would be worse.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Mr. Mustapha stated that the governing NPP is represented by the ever-brilliant and dynamic Vice President, Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia while the largest opposition party is represented by the perennial failed former president John Mahama.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThese two candidates are in full gear of their campaigns and have put forward their manifestos which contain the policies that they intend to implement once they get the mandate of the Ghanaian people. It is obvious that the track record and character of these two men will be put under strict scrutiny and should help form the basis of our decision. Fortunately for us, these two are known within our body politic.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The National Youth Organizer of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), Salam Mustapha has urged Ghanaian youth not to vote for the flagbearer of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), John Dramani Mahama indicating that his tenure as a shambolic performance characterized President \u201cWe witnessed his shambolic performance as president which saw your parents losing their jobs [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":160792,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[4],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-217528","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-local-news"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v28.8 -
