Communications Director for the New Patriotic Party’s flagbearer, Dr Mahamudu Bawumia’s campaign team has debunked claims that the NPP presidential candidate is a liar.
According to him, the constant claims by the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC) ensured that the algorithms of the Internet put that tag on the Vice President.
He explains that the algorithm on the internet picked it up because of the constant posts online about the Vice President being a liar.
However, not being able to fulfill all manifesto promises does not make anyone a liar because if that is the benchmark, then John Dramani Mahama should be the biggest liar on earth.
Dennis Miracles Aboagye who was speaking on Accra-based Asaase Radio said “First of all, apart from the NDC and the opposition political party which is their job, you’ll barely hear any Ghanaian…I think Joy or Multimedia or so did some series on this thing and they realized it was a deliberate orchestration. This is the internet, it’s an algorithm, every day as I write Miracles is a thief, It will pop up. Somebody needs to write about 20 articles. There is no fact, there is no evidence, and there is nothing Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia has lied about.
What is a lie? If I say for example that if I become President I will build a wall in front of Asaase Radio and I haven’t been able to do it, is it a lie? Is that what will make you call me a liar? If that is a lie, then let me tell you, the last time I picked John Mahama’s 2012 manifesto and I looked at it, he had over 1,300 promises that he hasn’t been able to fulfill. Then for us to be able to establish between John Mahama and Bawumia who is a liar we have to pick their manifestos and analyze it,” he said.
