    The problem is that Bawumia is a man without reputation, a man without a sense of proportion. He doesn't even care when he's lying openly. No reasonable person would want to be closer to a person like that, let alone debate h ...

    There is nothing like sense in some of you, just like how DMB goes round telling lies , that is the same thing you have spewed here. Bawumia can not be a problem to NDC. In Tonny Aido's submission, he described him as a flip ...

    Bawumia is NDC's napoleon. He is indeed a headache to NDC. If JDM accepts the invitation to debate Bawumia, he's finished. Bawumia will flop him to the abyss and to the bottomless pit. Mahama is dumb. Bawumia is brilliant. ...

    NDC TRUSTED IEA WHEN NAANA JANE WAS LEAKING QUESTIONS TO MAHAMA. NOW THEY CANT TRUST IEA BECAUSE THERE IS NO ONE TO LEAK QUESTIONS TO MAHAMA.

  • Osbon 2 years ago

    Why the insults? Debate or not,no need to insult each other. I thought 24 years of elections is enough for us to debate each other ideas and have a peaceful election. Period.

  • Nii 2 years ago

    Why did Bawumia refuse JDM debate request.
    Bawumia must first answer his 170 questions before JDM will even consider him.
    We must be careful of our actions and inactions. It’s karma hunting NPP and their Bawumia. As NAPO, ...
