‘You’re still a baby politician’

Tabitha Ayillah [L] and Beatrice Annan

A heated argument over a controversial memo linked to the Attorney General saw Tabitha Ayillah, a member of the Communications Team of the New Patriotic Party (NPP)challenge Beatrice Annan to present evidence on live television.

The discussion, which took place on Metro TV’s Good Morning Ghana and monitored by MyNewsGH, escalated after Annan accused the former government of corruption and mismanagement.

Annan, a presidential staffer and member of the National Democratic Congress(NDC) communications team, alleged that key documents exposing financial irregularities had been shredded but left traces in emails, prompting Ayillah to call her bluff.

“You claimed that there was a memo. Can you produce it? Bring it and share it with us—I think it will help all of us going forward.”

Despite Annan insisting she had access to the memo, she refused to provide it, leading Ayillah to question her credibility.

“If you have it, bring it. Otherwise, don’t make claims you cannot substantiate. Even the Attorney General did not deny it outright—he only said he didn’t see it. But you claim to have it, so let’s see it.”

The argument took a personal turn when Ayillah dismissed Annan as an inexperienced politician whose words carried little weight within the political landscape.

“No matter what you do, you are still a baby politician, and the honest truth is that the NPP will not take you seriously. You just came to Accra, and that does not mean you are seasoned in politics.”

Annan, unfazed by the remark, hit back at Ayillah’s attempt to discredit her, asserting that she had a solid political background despite being relatively new to the national stage.
