Mr. Buabeng Asamoa who is the Member of Parliament for Adenta had on Monday ridiculed the choice of Prof. Naana Jane Opoku-Agyemang as running mate for the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC).
At a press conference in Accra a few minutes after the announcement was made by flagbearer John Dramani Mahama, Mr. Asamoa remarked that the choice of running mate is an indication that Mr. Mahama does not take Ghanaian electorates seriously.
“We can only conclude that the choice of Prof Jane Naana Opoku-Agyeman by Mr John Dramani Mahama is a clear indication that he does not take the Ghanaian electorate seriously.
“But then as our own Vice President Dr Mahamudu Bawumia has famously said, it does not matter who the running mate is, if the main man himself is indecisive and incompetent, we still have a problem. It is our view that after having looked so long and wide, the NDC still has a problem,” he said.
A tweet from KSM moments after reports of Asamoa's statement went rife read: "The risk about being overly eager to run down your opponent is to end up exposing your own FOOLISHNESS. There’s no rush, take your time before you speak. Stop making a fool of yourself wai."
The tweet, according to some tweeps, is a dig at the NPP communicator. They argue that the legislator hurriedly downplayed Prof. Opoku-Agyemang's nomination and subsequently shot himself in the foot.
