‘Let’s Have A Debate, You And Me’- Mahama Challenges Akufo Addo

John Dramani Mahama has told Nana Akufo Addo that if he really wants to win the war over who has built more infrastructure between the two of them, then they should have a debate to settle the matter once and for all.

The former president made this remark after the Vice President Mahamudu Bawumia said the Akufo-Addo government has constructed more infrastructure projects (17,000) in less than four years than the NDC had managed in eight years.

Reacting to the issue at Ketu-South District as part of a four-day tour of the Volta Region, Mr. Mahama said a debate would bring a conclusion to the matter. He said: “In 2016, when I was talking about the value of infrastructure, friends on the other side said we don’t eat infrastructure, we don’t eat roads. That was what they said.

“Today, I can see a scramble to grab even KVIPs and any infrastructure and tout it as an achievement. But it is easy to settle the issue of infrastructure. After all, the President says this election is going to be an election of track records, comparing his track record to my track record.

“We can settle it easily, lets have a debate between two of us, the two Presidents. Let Nana Akufo-Addo come and sit down, let me sit down and let’s debate our records. I am willing to present myself for debate, any day, anytime, anywhere and we will settle the matter once and for all”.
