Flagbearer of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) John Dramani Mahama has said that Ghana needs an experienced hand to manage the economy. He says that Ghanaians are yearning for a leader who has the experience, not a first-timer. Addressing the Ada Traditional Council as part of his campaign on Tuesday, August 27, Mr Mahama said "we don't have time, Ghana does not have the luxury of time, our youth do not have the luxury of time because our youth are the future and they are also our present and they don't have the luxury to trial and error. "This one will come and try, dump us in a ditch then the driver's mate will come and take it and try again and go and crush us even further into the ditch. "We need experience, we need one who has done it before, we need the licensed driver to take over the vehicle and move the vehicle towards where God has said we should be."
