Isaac Jay Hyde, the Deputy National Youth Organizer of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) has described the presidential candidate of the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC), John Mahama as a comic relief During an interview on Metro TV's News Night, Isaac Hyde stated that Ghanaians are expecting John Mahama to come clear with the plans he has for them and how he intends to execute those plans. "The only thing John Mahama does is go around villages throwing tantrums and insults against our flagbearer, Dr Bawumia," Isaac stated.

According to Isaac Hyde, the NPP has gone a long way with Ghanaians after the mandate was given to them years ago.

He added that the flagbearer of the NPP has been able to traverse the country to over 240 constituencies while John Mahama has been sleeping on his campaigning tours.

He further alleged that members of the NDC have been buying votes by sharing items like basins for women and pieces of cloth.
