The former president, John Dramani Mahama has disclosed how he was looking forward to retire after he handed over to Akufo Addo and become a statesman.
However, he has decided to seek reelection because he knows and has seen the extent to which the Akufo-Addo government has destroyed the economy and the debt they’ve put on the country and wants to help fix it.
“I know it is going to be a difficult job for us. I was looking forward to retirement after I handed over to Akufo-Addo. I thought I was going to relax and be a statesman but I will be a selfish person if I see the extent to which they have destroyed this country when I have the experience, the knowledge and the integrity to turn things around” he noted.
He mentioned that he cannot just sit at home and say I will not offer myself when he can use the experience he has to turn things around for his children.
“For Sharaf, Shahid or farida and the youth of this country, we are going to work together with you to turn things around” he assured.
