A war of words has erupted between former President John Mahama and Vice President Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, with Mahama dismissing Bawumia’s call for an economic debate.
Mahama retorted that Bawumia, who has been touting himself as a “driver’s mate”, should first focus on acquiring a “driving license” before thinking of debating him, a seasoned “driver” with experience.
Mahama’s response is a clever play on words, referencing Bawumia’s campaign analogy where he likened himself to a driver’s mate, seeking the keys to steer the nation.
By implying that Bawumia lacks the experience and credentials to engage in a debate, Mahama is drawing attention to his own track record as a former President, emphasizing that he has the “driving license” of leadership experience.
The exchange has sparked a lively debate, with many interpreting Mahama’s response as a subtle jab at Bawumia’s perceived inexperience.
As the political discourse heats up, it remains to be seen if Bawumia will take up the challenge and attempt to secure his “driving license” in the eyes of the electorate.
