the former General Secretary of the New Patriotic Party (NPP),, has strongly criticized Vice President Dr. Mahamudu Bawumias recent comparison of himself to a drivers mate within the Akufo-Addo government.
Dr. Bawumia suggested that his unique vision warrants his ascension to the presidency.
In an interview on GHOne TV on February 20, 2024, Nana Ohene Ntow expressed his disapproval, labeling Dr. Bawumias comments both pitiful and insulting to the people of Ghana.
He argued that such statements imply the vice president position is redundant and should be eliminated.
Nana Ohene Ntow argued , Once a candidate is voted as president, his running mate is considered to have been voted. And two, if the president is indisposed today or hes out of the jurisdiction today, it is the vice president who occupies his shoes until he returns to post.
So, if Bawumia was in that position and is now telling Ghanaians that that position is all useless, you cant do anything with the position of a vice president. I think it is even an insult to the constitution of the country.
He further stated, Then we probably should listen to Bawumia and abolish the position of vice president because its useless. How can you speak like that to the people of Ghana?
Ohene Ntow, who is the spokesperson of the leader of the Movement for Change, Alan Kyerematen, said that the vice presidents remarks are the worst he has heard from a presidential contender.
Nana Ohene Ntow, also the spokesperson for Alan Kyerematen, leader of the Movement for Change, described Dr. Bawumias remarks as the most disheartening he has heard from a presidential contender.
That is why Im saying that statement is the most pathetic statement I ever heard from anyone aspiring to become president of Ghana, he added.
