‘Rejected’ Mahama doesn’t deserve another term in office – Akufo-Addo
President Nana Akufo Addo has urged youth employed by the Youth Employment Agency (YEA) to participate in the New Patriotic Party (NPP) activities for the 2024 presidential and parliamentary elections.
Addressing a forum of beneficiaries in Kumasi, President Akufo Addo expressed his disapproval of former President John Dramani Mahama’s leadership, describing him as “unsuccessful” and “rejected” President after serving only one term.
“Mahama is the only President who was not honoured by Ghanaians. All the other Presidents, Rawlings, Kufour, including myself have been honoured with a second term in office. Mahama is the only one who was voted out of office after just one term. Today, Mahama says he wants a return to power. Do we want to go backwards as a country, I believe not. So I implore you to be active in the upcoming campaign activities and give your all to support Dr. Bawumia the NPP Flagbearer.
“Which one do you prefer, unsuccessful President and successful Vice President? The Vice President Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia has demonstrated that he’ll move this country further in development when he becomes President. Let no one deceive you, the one who is competent is the one who is given the job. Mahama failed to deliver as President so he should not be elected back to power.”
The President expressed confidence that Dr. Bawumia has the potential to lead Ghana with effective policies and transform the country.
