Speaking with journalists in Accra over the weekend, Dennis Amfo-Sefa, alias Nana Boakye said former President John Mahama was wasting his time and the time of everyone else with his politics.

"There   is   no   way   Ghanaians   are   going   to  overlook   the   good  works   of President   Akufo-Addo   and   bring   back   into   power,   somebody   that   they rejected just a few years ago.

"if you look at the fact that in the period   that  we  are  talking  about,  President   Akufo-Addo  has  been   doing wonders in office," Nana Boakye said.

According to him, "Mr. John Mahama is only wasting his own precious time because the die is already cast – he will lose 2020."

Nana Boakye's caustic  take   on the chances  of the former  President   was provoked by what is seen as Mr. Mahama's about turn attempt to steal some shine   from   the   Free   SHS   education   programme   that    he   dismissed   as unworkable.

In a recent commentary on the programme, the former President said that he would review it and not scrap it as has been speculated, and that the reforms he would make to Free SHS would be informed by the outcome of wider consultation on the programme.

The   NPP   has   since   descended   heavily   on   Mr.   Mahama   over   the   issue warning   him   to   stay  clear   of   the   glory   from   the   programme  that  he opposed.

However,  the party's  Constituency Chairman   for Tema West  believed the rebuff by the party was not enough and therefore took a deeper dig at him.

."Mr. Mahama should just look around and see the policies that President Akufo-Addo is implementing, and he should ask himself – is there any more  room for any new policy that would be one of a kind? No; any relevant policy that Mr. Mahama can think about, President Akufo-Addo is already implementing something similar.

"In the area of Agriculture, there is planting for Food and Jobs; in the area of Health,   we   are   revamping  the   NHIS that Mahama and the  NDC   nearly collapsed   after   President   Kufuor   had   started;   in   the   area   of   youth employment we are implementing NABCO, in the area of Education, we have Free SHS, so what else is Mr. Mahama having up his sleeves that will be new if we give him the chance to come and also implement something?Nothing!" Nana Boakye told journalists.
