‘Will you give your car to old experienced driver or careless driver’s mate?’ – Mahama quizzes

Call us


The flag bearer of the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC), John Dramani Mahama, has argued that Ghanaians would rather hand over the governance of the country to a former experienced ‘driver’, than to a careless ‘driver’s mate‘, Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia.

The NDC leader, while speaking to some party members in the Upper West region, cited his expertise as a former President, indicating that he is better qualified to run the country than Dr. Bawumia, who has compared his role to that of a driver’s mate, raising concerns about how well he performs.

In what appeared to have absolved himself from the current economic conditions of the country, the NPP’s presidential candidate, Dr. Bawumia, indicated that his role was only to offer advice.

Mahama

But Mr. Maham emphasised the importance of Ghanaians electing him over Dr. Bawumia.

“The opportunity has come for us to rescue our nation from the incompetence and inept clueless administration of Nana Akufo-Addo and his driver’s mate. And so, on 7th December the driver is going and if the driver hasn’t been able to drive all these seven years he hasn’t driven properly, we are not going to hand over the car of Ghana to the driver’s mate.”

“If even the driver could not drive well how much less the driver’s mate. If you have a car and the driver didn’t drive well and so you are taking your car back, will you give it to your former experienced driver or you will give it to the careless driver’s mate? I will give it to the former experienced driver. I won’t give it to the driver’s mate,” he stated.

Reaction

Meanwhile, the comments by Mr. Mahama have generated varied reactions on social media. While some agree, others strongly disagree with the NDC flag bearer.

“The funny thing in this analogy is that he was also a driver who didn’t drive well and the car was taken from him, why should the car be given back to him? everything you say now comes back at you,” another user, Brolin posted on X.

@mikai_la said, “A wise man is definitely giving it to none of them, why is the experienced driver former ? Was he sacked?, did he have an accident ?… if he’s retired too then for our safety he should rest.”
