The New Patriotic Party’s Financial Secretary for Asokwa Constitency who double as Ashanti Regional Communication Team Member, Mr Paul Kwabena Yandoh has stated that, the former President and also the Flagbearer of National Democratic Congress (NDC), Mr John Dramani Mahama is a pathological and congenital liar and a fraudster who has absolutely no business being in public service or government.
Reacting to the NDC’s Manifesto in which they claim as “People’s Manifesto” with Kumasi journalist Adwenpahene Kofi Mensah in an exclusive interview, Mr Paul Kwabena Yandoh said ” Personally, I think their manifesto is bad and it will takes them more years to come to power again. it is impossible for the NDC to make private schools free at the Senior High School level as promised in its manifesto. If you say you will privatize private schools, I have a different view about it, because private schools are profit making centres, those who have it do it for profit, so if you say you will make the private schools free, will you provide free food for them or you will take the school fees of all the schools,? he quizzed. Also don’t forget you (John Mahama) and NDC Campaign massively against free shs Policy in 2012 and 2016.
He said John Mahama and Naana Opoku-Agyemang cancelled Training Teachers and Nurses Allowance, also paying electricity bill as well.
How can you come back and said “you will implement it is time around”.
In addition, he said Mr Mahama promise to legalize ‘Okada’ is another falsehood, and even if Mr Mahama in the unlikely situation becomes the President again, he would be unable to legalize ‘Okada’ operation because it was within this government in 2012, that Parliament approved a legislative proposal by the government to pass the Road Traffic Regulations, 2012 ( Legislative Instrument 2180) to regulate road Transport in the country.
Pursuant to this, Sections 128 (1), (2) and (3) of the L.I. 2180, prohibited the use of motorcycle or tricycle, or what has been popularly know as “Okada” for commercial purposes.
He also lamented that the Free Primary Health Care policy contained within in the manifesto of the opposition National Democratic Congress will cause a complete collapse of the National Health Insurance Scheme ( NHIS).
“If they are able to implement what they intend on doing it will cause a collapse of the Health Insurance Scheme. They will collapse it completely.”
According to him, this flagrant peddling of falsehood by Mr. Mahama and NDC, in a bid to creating widespread disaffection for President Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo is very ironic, because I recent months the propaganda mantra of the key Operatives of the NDC has been that Nana Akufo-Addo massively defeated then incumbent President John Mahama in the 2016 Presidential Electon, because the former president had systematically and suavely lied to Ghanaian voters. Now all Ghanaians know that it is rather the NDC’s Presidential Candidate for electons 2020 the very tissue and fabric of whose tongue is wholly composed of “Vitamin Mendacity”.
