His Excellency Nana Addo Dankwah Akuffo-Addo the President of the Republic of Ghana says voting for the National Democratic Congress will be retrogressive for the development of the country.
The President, said former President John Dramani Mahama is the worst performing President in the history of the country and a vote for him will be a big blow to the country’s development
According to the first Gentleman of the Land, former President Jerry John Rawlings of blessed memory, President John Agyekum Kuffuor and himself all had two terms in office due to their exceptional performance however, due to the abysmal performance of former President John Mahama, Ghanaians did not give him a second term therefore there would be no need bringing him back to office.
He said former President Mahama can only be remembered for Dumsor and mismanagement of Ghana’s economy but the NPP from Kuffuor to his time have implemented visionary policies that have positively benefited every Citizen therefore pleads with Nananom and the good People of Bono East Region to vote for His Vice President Alhaji Dr Mahamudu Bawumiah to come and continue his good works.
President Akuffo-Addo made these statements in Techiman on Tuesday when he addressed Nananom, Clergy, Groups of Bono East Region at the Valley View University auditorium after he had earlier on commissioned the Regional Coordinating Council Office Complex located on the Nkoranza road as part of his “Thank You Tour” as his tenure of office is coming to an end.
“The country’s constitution gives every President that opportunity to stay in office for two terms. Thanks to your believe and trust in me, I have been able to stay in office for two terms so I am here to thank you and account to the people what I have been able to achieve as a two term President.
“Very soon I will leave office so I am very grateful to the Ghanaian people, we all know that not all Presidents got the opportunity to stay in office for two terms and for the look of things, he will not get that opportunity.
“All the Presidents in the history of Ghana were able to complete two tenure in office, the Late Jerry John Rawlings, President John Agyekum Kuffour all have two tenure in office.
“I believe the late Atta Mills would have also had two tenure in office, I will soon complete my second tenure in office, it is only one person who was a one term President because he didn’t perform well.
“This same person wants to come and be the President again, what exactly is he coming to do again, if he was a good President, Ghanaians would have voted for him again.” The President said.
