Dela Edem, who works for John Dramani Mahama's communication team, said people are being hypocritical about the presidential jet.
He spoke on Adom FM, a radio program. Edem stated that it is not fair for the New Patriotic Party NPP to talk about the jet.
He believes the NPP had eight years of bad leadership. Edem suggested this period of poor governance makes their criticism of the jet unfair.
He did not provide specific details about the eight years of governance he referred to.
The debate involves questions about the use and cost of the presidential aircraft.
Edem's comments focus on the political timing of the criticisms.
