Are you calling for a change or return? – Adom-Otchere asks ‘candidate’ Mahama
Host of Good Evening Ghana on Metro TV, Paul Adom-Otchere has asked former president John Dramani Mahama to explain the basis on which he is seeking to return as president.
Adom-Otchere holds that given his person and political history with the presidency, Mahama cannot put himself out as a candidate seeking a change in the executive governance of Ghana.
As a former president seeking a comeback, Adom-Otchere submitted in an editorial on the March 2 edition of his show that Mahama was at best a candidate calling for a ‘return.’
“Is president Mahama calling for a change or he is calling for a return? Because for him, it is a return,” he said, explaining that a change mantra will be correct only if “president Mahama explains and apologizes for the things that caused his defeat in 2016.
If that is done, he continued: “then his ticket will represent a change. But at this stage, president Mahama’s ticket is a return but Ghanaians must decide whether the return is good or the change is good.”
He observed that the NDC was presenting Mahama as a change candidate and one who comes with a new voice but “that task to very high to surmount.”
