Former President John Mahama has denied claims that he was reached by President Akufo-Addo to assist with settling the stalemate around the disputable E-demand in Parliament.
As per him, he just got Gabby Asare Otchere-Darko, President Akufo-Addo's cousin on Tuesday, December 21, 2021, to examine how the New Patriotic Party (NPP) and the National Democratic Congress (NDC) could cooperate in light of a legitimate concern for Ghanaians.
In a post on Facebook, John Mahama said all through the conversations between the two, no particular notice was made on the dubious E-demand and the need to determine the resulting stalemate in Parliament.
Some web-based media posts show that Gabby Asare Otchere-Darko looked for Mahama's crowd for the benefit of Nana Akufo-Addo to get him to intercede in the E-demand stalemate and help to get it passed in Parliament however John Mahama declined the solicitation.
John Mahama have since explained what happened in his Facebook post.
Peruse Mahama's assertion beneath:
President Akufo-Addo didn't look for my intercession on the E-Levy stalemate.
I got Mr. Gabby Otchere Darko, at his solicitation, at my home on Tuesday 21st December, 2021
Among issues we examined was the craving of Ghanaians to see the two significant ideological groups cooperating for the interest of the country.
We examined, likewise, how exchange can be conveyed to guarantee Parliamentary issues are concurred consensually prior to coming on the floor to stay away from what happened as of late in the House.
We further examined opening channels of correspondence between the heads of the two gatherings incorporating a potential gathering with the President sometime not too far off.
Never was there any conversation explicitly about the President requiring my intercession in the stalemate on the E-demand.
