Minority Leader in Parliament Osei Kyei-Mensah-Bonsu says he would have done better than incumbent John Dramani Mahama as a president given the way the former Member of Parliament (MP) for Bole/Bamboi Constituency has managed the country’s economy.
The Suame Constituency MP analogized that: “My performance in parliament is 100% better than that of John Mahama during his parliamentary days.”
Mr Mensah-Bonsu made these claims in an interview on Kumasi-based Fox FM on Saturday, May 9.
He further compared the president with his party’s leader, Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo, saying the former MP Abuakwa South MP was several times better than President Mahama while he was MP.
Both President Mahama and Nana Akufo-Addo left Parliament in 2008 after having served as legislators 16 years apiece.
“He [John Mahama] is my friend and I know what he can and cannot do.” But asked whether he may be considering the highest position of the land, the Minority Leader quipped.
