Ghanaians voted me out for Akufo-Addo “sweet talk”; now learning their lessons – Mahama

Former President John Mahama says Ghanaians are learning their lessons after listening to the “sweet talk” of President Akufo-Addo and voting him out in 2016.

Speaking to Uganda-based NBS Television during a recent visit there, Mr Mahama said Ghanaians now attest to the infrastructural development that took place in the country during his tenure.

“When someone new comes along and sways the people with sweet talk, and you are voted out, you let them learn. And Ghanaians today are learning.

“If you ask Ghanaians today to assess my four years as President, they will tell you there was a lot of transformation in the country, especially in the field of infrastructure,” Mr. Mahama said.

He further noted: “It’s been around six years so far. The country is in crisis. We are running into debt. The government has borrowed in excess of GHC270 billion, and there is nothing to show for it”.

Mr Mahama is yet to declare if he will contest the presidential primaries of the opposition party for the 2024 polls.
