To emphasize the critical nature of Ghana‘s current economic challenges and his capability to resolve them, National Democratic Congress (NDC) flagbearer John Dramani Mahama referenced statements from prominent officials of the ruling New Patriotic Party.
During the launch of the NDC’s campaign on July 27, 2024, Mahama cited remarks by President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo and Kennedy Agyapong, Member of Parliament for Assin Central, to illustrate the nation’s dire situation and argue for his leadership in the upcoming December 7, 2024, elections.
Mahama highlighted Kennedy Agyapong’s viral statement from an interview with KSM, saying, “A member of the New Patriotic Party, a friend, and a former colleague MP, said, ‘It’s not Ghana that needs change, it’s change that needs Ghana.’
That is Honourable Kennedy Agyapong.” He connected this to the Afrobarometer survey, where over 80% of Ghanaians felt the country was heading in the wrong direction, underscoring the necessity for change on December 7.
Additionally, Mahama recalled President Akufo-Addo’s 2016 campaign promise, suggesting that electing Akufo-Addo was a mistake that shouldn’t be repeated with Bawumia, who is campaigning with a similar ‘try me’ message.
He warned against wasting another four years under the same leadership, emphasizing that the youth cannot afford further delays in progress.
Mahama asserted his readiness to guide the country onto the right path, arguing that the next four years are pivotal.
He expressed confidence in his ability to reset Ghana’s trajectory, drawing on his experience and expertise.
“Several years ago, somebody came and said ‘Try me,’ and the result is what we are seeing today. Now, another person is repeating the same message. The youth of this country don’t have four years to waste,” Mahama concluded.
