Apexnewsgh reports Mahama introduced Adongo as the NDC’s parliamentary candidate for the 2024 elections, highlighting his expertise in leading the party’s financial and economic propositions in parliament.

Mahama Takes Jab at Bawumia: Ghana Needs Experienced Leader, Not ‘Driver’s Mate’
In a rally in Bolgatanga, Presidential candidate John Dramani Mahama took a swipe at his likely contender, Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, saying Ghana requires an experienced leader, not an inexperienced “driver’s mate”.

In contrast, Mahama believes his experience and demonstrated ability to tackle crises make him the ideal candidate. Mahama told the crowd, “We don’t need a driver’s mate… We need an experienced driver to move the car out of the ditch, put it back on the road, and drive us safely to our destination.” He praised his running-mate, Naana Jane Opoku-Agyemang, as a competent co-driver who will help resolve the country’s crises. Mahama highlighted the historic significance of having a female Vice-President, inspiring women to strive for high positions. Continuing to taunt Bawumia, Mahama said, “She’s not going to be a driver’s mate. She’s going to be a co-driver.” He urged electorates not to risk the country’s potential by voting for the NPP candidate, who has demonstrated a lack of experience and qualities to navigate Ghana out of its troubles.

Ayariga, a failure of an MP to Bawku, has no moral right to criticize Mathew Silas Amoah–Youth Organizer
