Former Deputy General Secretary of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), Samuel Koku Anyidoho, has asked the flagbearer of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), John Dramani Mahama, to apologize to Ghanaians .
This request comes after John Mahama made a comment teasing Vice President Mahamudu Bawumia who has compared himself to a driver’s mate.
“If you have two drivers and you have a driver’s mate who has been an apprentice for a driver sitting in one of those buses, and you have an experienced driver who has driven you several times back and forth to your destinations and back, Which of those two buses will you sit in. And so the person himself says he is driver’s mate. He doesn’t have a license yet. So he should work and get the license first. And then after he gets the license, he can come and we will talk,” John Mahama teased.
However, Anyidoho believes the comment was inappropriate and offensive, and that Mahama should apologize to Ghanaians, viewing it as an insult to the people rather than just ridiculing Bawumia.
“This is not funny at all! This is a BIG INSULT to Ghana 🇬🇭 & Ghanaians. It is NOT Bawumia you are ridiculing; it is Ghanaians you are insulting by thinking we don’t remember what happened btwn 24/07/12 – 07/01/17. Sir, you have to eat back your words and apologize to the nation,” Mr Anyidoho requested in a post of X.
