When they can’t compete with you, they come up with all sorts of crap.

I don’t understand this business of arrogance. Some people take confidence for arrogance,” he said.
According to K.T. Hammond, Dr. Prempeh is a confident person who pairs perfectly with Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia as flag bearer and running mate of the NPP.
He emphasized that Dr. Prempeh’s track record in the education and energy sectors may not be perfect, but he managed to handle his duties to the best of his abilities.
“We don’t have 100 per cent perfect human being. No human can make claim to infallibility.
So he may have had one or two difficulties here and there but he is solid and going to pair properly, effectively, comprehensively with our candidate,” K.T. Hammond said.
The Minister of Trade and Industry also expressed his confidence in the Bawumia-Napo ticket, stating that it is not only going to “Break the 8” but also relegate the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC) into “oblivion.”
He urged supporters to “watch the space” as he believes that the NDC will try to say anything to discredit the ticket.
“It’s easy for them to say anything at all that comes to their mind.
So if they believe that this is a ticket that could easily be tackled, I pray for them.
I wish them well. Watch the space. We are going to set history,” K.T. Hammond said.
With his defense of Dr. Prempeh and his confidence in the Bawumia-Napo ticket, K.T. Hammond has given a clear indication that he is ready for a fierce campaign ahead of the 2024 general elections.
