MAHAMA TO AGYEPONG: TWO TIMES BAWUMIA’S POLITICAL STATEMENTS HAVE BEEN ‘FACT-CHECKED’



In the New Patriotic Party (NPP) flagbearership race, vice president Mahamudu Bawumia is widely considered to be the frontrunner. He is tenth on the polling form paper for the impending super delegates meeting to chop the quantity of applicants down from 10 to five preceding the November political decision.


Bawumia, on the other hand, has made statements during his campaign tours that have prompted responses from political opponents both inside and outside the party.


On account of a reaction coming from the inside, his remark that the NPP top dogs in 2012 would not mount the dock during the political decision request has been questioned by then Broad Secretary, Kwabena Adjei Agyepong.


From outside, Bawumia's case that he has beaten previous president John Dramani Mahama two times at the surveys - apparently alluding to 2016 and 2020 - whiles trying to underline that he was awesome to beat Mahama a third time, has likewise gotten a reaction from Mahama.


Agyapong answers Bawumia



As per Kwabena Agyepong, Dr Bawumia in his case has purposely kept away from some gauge realities just to suit his story.


"Does he know the beginning of the case in court in 2012? Do you know what caused the election results to be delayed for 48 hours, those of us who were present at the Electoral Commission at the time? Is it true or not that he was there by then, at that point?


"Only after the party National Council decided that we will go to court did he enter.


"In the event that we are to go to court, competitor Akufo-Addo and he as being important for the ticket and afterward the administrator and afterward the overall secretary of the party, those are the ones who went to go; Those are those who are suing.


"So when you proceed to present your defense you need to shield it. So he shouldn't have expressed that so that anybody might be able to hear it. It isn't accurate and it is off-base; When I heard that we had fled, I was very disappointed. He asserted, "It is false."


The New Energetic Party then in resistance tested the 2012 official political race results after the Constituent Commission announced John Dramani Mahama of the Public Vote based Congress as champ.


Dr Bawumia who was then running mate to Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo on the ticket of the NPP affirmed in court as the critical observer for the offended parties.


The High Court ultimately excused the request.


Mahama instructs Bawumia on how to run for office:



Previous President John Dramani Mahama applauded back at VP Dr Mahamudu Bawumia in a new meeting over his cases that he has beaten him two times in races.


Mahama stated that Dr. Bawumia was incorrect in his assertion while appearing on the KSM show.


"He says he knows how to beat me and that he's beaten me previously. That is the thing I saw, that he's beaten me two times and he knows how to beat me once more. Yet, I've never gone against him; His picture has never appeared on a ballot for the presidency.


"How might you say you've beaten me? I have never challenged you for the presidency. It's Nana Addo I gone against in 2012, I beat him and afterward in 2016 he won and afterward 2020 he won.


"So even between Nana Addo and I, I've won whenever he's won two times. It's simply he won't run once more however I'm certain in the event that he planned to run once more, I would've balanced," the previous president accentuated.
