He has refused to listen to everyone. Eighty NPP MPs signed a petition for removal of the Finance Minister but the President refused&#8221;, he told the people.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ghanamma.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/WhatsApp-Image-2023-12-23-at-15.48.15-1-683x1024.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-10032435600 lazy\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The former President continued; &#8220;You can&#8217;t understand why the same person is being kept at the ministry. The President himself has lost hope. He told journalists the President after him should restore the economy in an interview on the economy.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In the address, the former President who&#8217;s seeking a comeback described himself as akin to the Biblical saviour.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&#8220;The Bible talks about a saviour to redeem us. I am a Christian and believe Jesus Christ is the one. But before the coming of Jesus Christ, a saviour will be sent to redeem Ghana. That person will be experienced enough for the task. That individual is John Dramani Mahama and the NDC&#8221;, he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ghanamma.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/WhatsApp-Image-2023-12-23-at-15.48.16-1024x683.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-10032435599 lazy\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The first day of the &#8220;Building Ghana Tour&#8221; in the Central Region was climaxed with a community engagement at Jukwa in Heman Lower Denkyira.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Prior to that, the NDC flagbearer made stops at the Twifo Nursing Training College, Fante Nyankomase among other places to engage the people and traditional authorities.<\/p>\n\n                <p><strong>DISCLAIMER: <\/strong>The Views, Comments, Opinions, Contributions and Statements made by Readers and Contributors on this platform do not necessarily represent the views or policy of Multimedia Group Limited.<\/p>      \n                <!-- Post Tags -->\n                \n\n                        \n\n    \n                                 \n                                             \n                    <\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Flagbearer of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), John Dramani Mahama says a vote for the New Patriotic Party (NPP) in 2024 is technically an extension of President Akufo-Addo&#8217;s tenure.
