Ayariga has also challenged them to participate without any external aids, asserting that he is prepared to present his policies to the Ghanaian public during the debate. "Today the NPP and the NDC are running away from their own debate. It's not because they are running from their own debate; it's because they can't sit and let Ghanaians hear the truth of the matter and understand the dynamics. "I have even asked for the two of them to sit before me and when they do, I am calling for a debate from John Mahama and the NPP. But in this case, I don't want a debate where we all go in with foreign materials.
