Joyce Bawah Mogtari, spokesperson for the John Mahama Campaign Team, has asserted that a pre-election debate between NDC flagbearer John Mahama and NPP flagbearer Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia is unnecessary.
Despite calls from political analysts and stakeholders, Bawah Mogtari dismissed the notion of a debate between the two leading candidates. On Saturday, July 13, she posted on X (formerly Twitter) that there is “nothing left to debate about,” pointing to the country’s economic crisis as evidence.
She urged voters to make wise decisions in the 2024 elections. “My Dear Brothers and Sisters, what really is there to debate about, there is absolutely nothing left to debate. The economy has crashed and the country broke. ‘We dey for gutter inside.’ A steering wheel without a car can’t get anyone anywhere. Let’s vote wisely, choose experience,” she wrote.
In an earlier interview on The Point of View on Channel One TV, Bawah Mogtari reiterated her stance against a debate between the major contenders. While acknowledging Mahama’s exceptional energy and extensive knowledge, she remained firm in her decision to decline any debate invitation.
