For the Ghana we envision, we need leaders who honor their commitments and understand that history will remember not statues, but actions that truly benefit the people.

This man came to power to make a name for himself. He’s a proud man and I can guarantee he’s one leader who will fast be forgotten in the history of Ghana’s politics.

This statue will not make Ghanaians remember President Akufo-Addo @NAkufoAddo.
Rather Ghanaians will remember @NAkufoAddo as the most visionless, myopic and corrupt president ever.
Animals will never allow the dumbest of the herd to lead them. Yet Ghanaians did.
