    Since our current democratic practice started in 1992, and in the history of IEA debates, Mahama remains the only sitting president who has ever taken part in an IEA debate. He is matchless as far as the record stands.

  • Anonymous Coward 7 years ago

    John Mahama is behind time in completing his handing over notes, so Koku should make sure, he uses that time to get it ready. His hidden message has been received loud and clear to the discerning.

  • Prof. Issifu, UK 7 years ago

    It looks like the NDC is scared of a debate between Nana Addo and JDM. They did the same thing when President Mills was sick and they were scared to expose him at the IEA debate. When they succeeded in killing him, they allow ...

    President Mahama is afraid of the IEA debate because he knows he cannot get the questions before the debate as he got it from Naana in 2012 debate.

  • FINAL WISDOM 7 years ago

    The IEA is not a credible institution to organize a political debate given her recent contributions by its members and functionaries on some national issues. It's been seen more as a pro-NPP organ.
