Head of Department, Early Childhood Education at the University of Education, Winneba, Dr. Amidu Jinapor says Alban Bagbin is not prepared for the National Democratic Congress flagbeareship.
He believes Mr. Bagbin’s unsavoury comment will have a dent on his political career and not his Presidential ambition.
“I think Babgin’s comment is unfortunate and may affect his political career in future. It won’t affect his presidential ambition because I think he is not a prepared candidate,” he said on TV3’s Morning Show, New Day on Saturday.
Alban Bagbin is under pressure to apologize following calls from various physically challenged groups over some of his comments they describe as demeaning.
