Mahamas Legacy Is Just Dumsor Nothing More Akufo Addo Jabs

President Akufo-Addo has once again aimed the flagbearer of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), John Dramani Mahama, criticising his tenure as a former President of Ghana.

According to President Akufo-Addo, Mr Mahama has left no tangible legacy for Ghanaians to remember him by, in contrast to former Presidents Jerry John Rawlings and John Agyekum Kufuor.

Speaking during a community engagement in the Northern Region as part of his ongoing tour, President Akufo-Addo highlighted Mr Mahama’s administration as synonymous with Ghana's severe power crisis, known as "dumsor."

He remarked that when Mahama's name is mentioned, it is only the era of intermittent power supply that comes to mind, a period that severely affected businesses and households across the country.

President Akufo-Addo further questioned why Mahama is seeking to return to power in the 2024 elections, given the difficulties his administration imposed on the nation.

He expressed concerns that Mr Mahama’s leadership if given another chance, would only lead to further obstacles and setbacks for Ghana’s development.

The President pointed out that both Rawlings and Kufuor are remembered for their distinct contributions to the country's progress.

In contrast, he argued that Mr Mahama’s time in office was marked by economic mismanagement and power instability, which left lasting damage on the economy.

President Akufo-Addo concluded by urging Ghanaians to reject Mahama in the upcoming general elections, just as they did in 2016 and 2020.

He called on voters to consider the future of the country and choose a leader who can drive progress, rather than repeating past mistakes.

"When you mention Rawlings,  District Assembly comes to mind, When you mention Kufuor, National Health Insurance Scheme comes to mind, When you mention Akufo-Addo, Free SHS comes to mind but when you mention Mahama DUMSOR comes to mind," the President insisted.King Edward Ambrose Washman/
