Bawumia is not fit for Presidency – Dr. Tony Aidoo
“For Bawumia in particular his hurdle is the crisis of credibility; who wants to vote for a person who has proven himself to be a liar; a flip-flopper. A man who is not disciplined, a man who calls his political opponent all sorts of derogatory names”
Former senior Presidential Aide and Head of the Policy Evaluation and Oversight Unit of the Office of late President Atta Mills, Dr. Tony Aidoo, has said that of all personalities vying for the 2024 presidential ticket of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) Vice President Bawumia would face the hardest hurdle to convince voters over his credibility.
This, he says this is because Bawumia is a flip-flop and a liar with a credibility crisis from years of lying.
“For Bawumia in particular his hurdle is the crisis of credibility; who wants to vote for a person who has proven himself to be a liar; a flip-flopper. A man who is not disciplined, a man who calls his political opponent all sorts of derogatory names,” Dr. Tony Aidoo said while featuring as a panelist on the political talk show, Alhaji and Alhaji on Radio Gold.
Dr. Aidoo points out that the flip-flop Vice President under whose watch Ghana’s economy has plunged into a mess used his adept ability at lying to brand former President John Mahama as incompetent only to prove himself worst as head of the Economic Management Team of the Akufo-Addo government.
“But this is a man who has managed Akufo-Addo’s economic management team since 2017 and is full of ideational contradictions. One day when he says when the fundamentals are wrong the exchange rate will expose you. The next day he says when the exchange rate is fluctuating it does not mean the fundamentals are wrong. Like the hare said to Alice in the wonderland; say what you mean and mean what you say. But this flip-flopper, self-styled or acclaimed to be an economic wizkid of the NPP is so inconsistent,” Dr. Aidoo jabbed
“He is your ideal flip-flopper, he lacks credibility,” Dr. Tony Aidoo said.
Meanwhile, he points out that all those vying to be NPP flagbearers in 2024 have the big hurdle of convincing the electorates that the Akufo-Addo government has done well, to cross.
So far names that have appeared are Vice President Alhaji Mumni Bawumia, the Minister for Agric, Afriyie Akoto, Alan Kyeremanten, the Minister for Trade and Industry, Joe Ghartey, former minister for railways and Mr. Adei Nimo.
