The opposition New Patriotic Party (NPP) has taken a swipe at President John Mahama that the party’s running mate, Dr. Mahamadu Bawumia has no locus to describe him as incompetent.
Freddie Blay tressed that "2016 is about a change from the incompetence the people see, the incompetence we feel and the incompetence we know."
Addressing a press conference in Accra, Wednesday, the acting chairman of the party, Mr Freddie Blay, said, "We do not think it’s fair on the President for us to compare Dr Bawumia to him."
"A change from a party that in eight years makes the people poorer and the nation bankrupt to the Party that can rescue the economy and put Ghana back to work."
He continued, "It is about a change from the needless and avoidable hardships that Ghanaians have been forced to face in these eight years of NDC. The campaign in 2016 is essentially about which party can be trusted to change the lives of Ghanaians. And these decisions will be based on the facts. Nothing more, nothing less."
He stressed that "2016 is about a change from the incompetence the people see, the incompetence we feel and the incompetence we know."
"2016 is a campaign for change. And when a government that is ending its second term is promising to transform Ghana when it cannot even afford to get the transformers working to keep our lights on, the good people of Ghana know what to say to that government. The message from Ghanaians to President John Mahama is, “enough is enough!," Freddie Blay added.
