None of his people can explain it and they say they will be exporting lions and elephants.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWhen we meet man-to-man, we can debate and the country will see where our policies lie and that is where we should go, give the country an opportunity to listen to us, but if he chooses not to debate, I will continue to sell my policies to the people of Ghana and you will take the decision.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><sub><em>Source: Citinewsroom.com<\/em><\/sub><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"500\" height=\"500\" src=\"https:\/\/dmediagh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG-20230613-WA0094.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-562\" style=\"width:160px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/dmediagh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG-20230613-WA0094.jpg 500w, https:\/\/dmediagh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG-20230613-WA0094-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/dmediagh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG-20230613-WA0094-150x150.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><sub><strong><em>Dmedia News (Domajuosu Multimedia)<\/em><\/strong><\/sub><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The flagbearer of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, has accused the flagbearer<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":1434,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_mi_skip_tracking":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[8],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1433","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-politics"],"featured_image_urls":{"full":["https:\/\/dmediagh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Bawumia-Nalerigu-750x375-1.jpg",750,375,false],"thumbnail":["https:\/\/dmediagh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Bawumia-Nalerigu-750x375-1-150x150.jpg",150,150,true],"medium":["https:\/\/dmediagh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Bawumia-Nalerigu-750x375-1-300x150.jpg",300,150,true],"medium_large":["https:\/\/dmediagh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Bawumia-Nalerigu-750x375-1.jpg",640,320,false],"large":["https:\/\/dmediagh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Bawumia-Nalerigu-750x375-1.jpg",640,320,false],"1536x1536":["https:\/\/dmediagh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Bawumia-Nalerigu-750x375-1.jpg",750,375,false],"2048x2048":["https:\/\/dmediagh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Bawumia-Nalerigu-750x375-1.jpg",750,375,false],"shareaholic-thumbnail":["https:\/\/dmediagh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Bawumia-Nalerigu-750x375-1-640x320.jpg",640,320,true],"chromenews-featured":["https:\/\/dmediagh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Bawumia-Nalerigu-750x375-1.jpg",750,375,false],"chromenews-large":["https:\/\/dmediagh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Bawumia-Nalerigu-750x375-1.jpg",750,375,false],"chromenews-medium":["https:\/\/dmediagh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Bawumia-Nalerigu-750x375-1-590x375.jpg",590,375,true]},"author_info":{"info":["Babia Mubaric"]},"category_info":"<a href=\"https:\/\/dmediagh.com\/index.php\/category\/politics\/\" rel=\"category tag\">Politics<\/a>","tag_info":"Politics","comment_count":"0","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/dmediagh.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1433","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/dmediagh.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/dmediagh.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dmediagh.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dmediagh.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1433"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/dmediagh.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1433\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1435,"href":"https:\/\/dmediagh.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1433\/revisions\/1435"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dmediagh.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1434"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/dmediagh.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1433"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dmediagh.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1433"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dmediagh.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1433"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
