Really? ...the debate is unnecessary? What kind of politics do we have in Ghana? Political debates for presidential aspirants offers them opportunity to highlight their vision for the populace. It will be a good opportunity for NDC to prove to Ghanaians that Bawumia is indeed a liar ... or is NDC afraid that a political debate will expose the emptiness of 24 hour economy? All the bad things NDC have been saying about the VP, wouldn't the debate give them an opportunity to prove it? Obviously, John Mahama has many people who thinks that he's too fragile to be allowed to debate the VP. Ghanaians will never take NDC serious again ... now that NDC is saying Free SHS was initiated by them. Everyone in Ghana knows that Nana Addo started talking about it since 2008.

Ghanaians, after gaining a lot of money and building a mansion in Accra or Kumasi, if you don't think of building a good mansion in your hometown for yourself and your relatives, somewhere in the districts, then I don't know what to say of you. What would you do with your money? In a certain constituency, no one knows the MPs house o! No one knows the minister's mansion. Does he really hail from the constituency? If the MP or minister hasn't thought of building a house or mansion in the constituency, then why would he think of tarring a road or building a hospital. Ghana fo), yen hwe yie!

Such debates have no influence in the choice of presidents in Ghana. If it works in the US, it does not work in Ghana. No copy copy here anymore.

Bawumia is the best person to lead Ghana into the digital age to create jobs for the teeming youth. He's not the Finance Minister to focus on the cedi's depreciation. NDC cannot govern Ghana but they can do propaganda well well. In 2019, CNN, ABC News, Fox News and many other American mainstream media houses declared Ghana to be one of the fastest growing economies in the WORLD ... not AFRICA but the WORLD. Foreigners were coming to Ghana in bunches. The year of return brought much gains to the hospitality industry in Ghana. Then in 2020, Covid-19 hit very hard and the whole world was on a lockdown. President Akuffo Addo did a marvelous job in keeping Ghanaians safe. He even said, " I don't have the power to bring people back to life if they die, but we can surely bring back the economy" ... what did he mean by that? Basically, he meant, he would sacrifice the economy to safeguard the lives of Ghanaians. In 2021, the economy was gradually rebounding but unfortunately, 2022 came around and then Russia invaded Ukraine. This war also brought about shockwaves that shook the whole world economically, just like Covid-19. So, anyone who doesn't acknowledge that these external forces had impacted global economies including Ghana is simply ignorant of world events. We're living in a GLOBAL VILLAGE whereby an event can happen in part of the world and within hours, the effect of it would be felt across the world. NDC can go ahead and blame Bawumia but Ghanaians can never forget Covid-19 and how Nana Addo vowed to save Ghanaian lives. All the NDC people enjoyed free electricity and water for months. Today, the same people are blaming the government. Indeed, Ghanaians do have short memories ... HOW CAN WE FORGET SO SOON!!!

What Ghana needs now is for the NPP's economic Albert Einstein to provide solutions to stop the economic downturn, not a meaningless debate. Not another fruitless talkshow. Bawumia, solve the economic problems.

You dumb Npp supporters don't learn anything. Are you saying when Mahama called for a debate in 2016 and your Akuffo and Bawumia refused, were they afraid of Mahama? Yoy see how stupid you sound. Mahama will not debate him. You can go and burn the sea.

NPP is taking Ghanaians for granted by turning a blind eye to suffering masses. Funny enough, people still support their failure albeit the situation is becoming worse. Bawumia was appointed vice president by NPP after Akuffo Addo's honest admittance of no knowledge of resolving economic issues yet we've become worse in that regard with the former in charge of that department. What then can he do to improve our lives when elected president? Let's wake up and vote wisely because our future solely depends on it.

Do Mahama and his literature madam under economics? Apart from massive stealing, corruption what economic policies can Mahama present? Didn't we have a bitter taste of NDCs 27 years of disastrous rule? NPP has implemented free SHS. Did we get even a cedi benefit from the NDC? Shut up. No national cake was shared under your 27 years rule but the NPP is sharing it through free SHS. Shut up you NDC animals.

Debate is necessary if Mahama is intelligent. If only the NDC is intelligent to counter. Now, during debate process, covid-19 pandemic and its impacts will come in. Russia Ukraine war. Systemic global effects, free SHS and massive spending will come in. Ghana's over dependent on foreign goods and services will come in. These are important debate topics. NDC shut up and present your candidate ok. Didn't we experience over 100% currency depreciation within 3 months under Rawlings presidency? Look where Mills took the currency from Kufuor and look at where it landed under Mahama. You guys aren't better ok. You are more than horrible terrors NDC

How can Aplanke Bawumia focus on the cedi's depreciation when he's busy running from his NPP government's failed policies? Aplanke Bawumia still can't explain why he has not been able to arrest the cedi after seven years chasing that cedi, nor can he explain why he can't come up with a solution for reviving the economy that he helped to mismanage and drive into a comatose state.

NPP IS A GALAMSEY PARTY OF THIEVING NATION-WRECKERS.

Who do you think you're fooling when your NPP steering wheel dancing clown Aplanke Bawumia is running from the failed economic policies of his own NPP government? If any persons are telling lies about the economy, it must be the NPP thieving liars who keep blaming Mr. Corona and his wife Covid-419 for sabotaging Akufo-Addo's economy, even though Ghanaians are well aware that the NPP incompetent galamsey government and its looters are the ones that looted and mismanaged the economy, causing it to collapse. NPP thieving liars have no shame when it comes to looting the country and neglecting to address the issues facing Ghana.

its a strategy to revive the dying political career of the VEEP. if he gets the chance to have a debate with JDM he would get the chance to have his name occupying the media space for days if not weeks then the NPP propagandist would start their thing. If you know you have outperformed the previous government, you don't need a debate to drum home your success story but since you have nothing called achievement and your media houses and journalists haven't been able to achieve their goal you are now looking for a debate. Very useless VEEP ever to plague Ghana.
