Former Deputy National Youth Organizer of the New Patriotic Party (NPP)Dominic Eduah says President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo will defeat and render former President John Mahama in the 2020 polls useless.
His comment is based on the backdrop that former President Mahama has declared his intention to contest for the National Democratic Congress’ (NDC) flagbearer slot ahead of the 2020 elections.
Speaking on UTV Dawuro’s programme, he indicated that Akufo Addo will use the sinohydro infrastructure deal to cancel all the so-called Mahama infrastructure.

Reacting to this, Mr. Eduah reiterated that if Nana Addo declares his intention to run again Mr. Mahama will have no chance or be a match to him.
“Mr. Mahama cannot boast of any achievements apart from some few infrastructures and if he decides to run on the ticket of his few achievements, President Akufo Addo will render him useless, he emphasized.
