“Bawumia is a fine gentleman. The sad thing is that he is not his own man and it hurts me. If he were his own man, he would have picked his running mate. He didn’t pick NAPO or whatever you call him. NAPO was pushed on him, I’m telling you. Unfortunately, he and NAPO can never jell, mark my words, I’m telling you,” Dr. Nyaho Nyaho-Tamakloe stated.
Muhammadu Bawumia, according to Dr. Nyaho-Tamakloe, is not his own man.
Dr. Nyaho Nyaho-Tamakloe, a founding member of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), has stated that anyone in the Akufo-Addo administration involved in corrupt activities ought to be subjected to the full force of the law.
In an interview with 3news.com, Dr. Nyaho-Tamakloe stressed the importance of the general elections in December and forewarned anyone who could attempt to alter the outcome.
Regarding the presidential contenders, a prominent member of the NPP stated that Alan Kyerematen would have fared better in the December polls if he hadn’t been involved in President Akufo-Addo’s second term of office.
“Allan has no business being in the second term of Akufo-Addo if he had good political advisors and he had an ambition to become a leader of this country. If he had not served in the second term of Akufo-Addo he would have walked to power like that….he participated in everything,… what message does he have for the people now?’’ He asked.
The NPP mainstay cited what Dr. Mathew Opoku Prempeh said during his inaugural speech.
“Look at the first statement he made and the stir he caused in this country. If I had been in Bawumia’s shoes and I had really chosen NAPO and he comes out with this statement, I will immediately push him aside and take another person, he is not a winning horse,” the NPP founding member stated.
He charged the National Democratic Congress (NDC) flagbearer, John Mahama to prosecute all corrupt acts of the Akufo-Addo-led government if he wins power.
“If he happens to win the elections and he fails to handle basic things that have happened in this country, he will be the most hated and unpopular leader in this country. Especially, the looting of the resources of this country, the thievery that is going on, corruption all over the place and the packing of the courts with party apparatchiks at the highest courts,” he said.
He warned against attempts to thwart the decision of the people, saying that the NPP may not have the same advantage in this election in the Ashanti Region, which has historically been the party’s stronghold.
“With barely four months to go until the elections, nobody should fool himself or herself. The people will vote with their wallets, and woe betide anybody who believes he can overrule the people’s decision. Dr. Nyaho-Tamakloe said, “What happened on June 4 was just a joke, I know what I’m talking about.”
