President Akufo-Addo and Former President John Mahama<\/strong><\/p>\n\u00a0<\/p>\n
President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo has reaffirmed his stance on handing over power to his predecessor, John Dramani Mahama.<\/p>\n
According to President Akufo-Addo, his successor would not be someone he has beaten twice in previous elections.<\/p>\n
He made the assertion when he addressed the chiefs and people of Wa, in the Upper West Region, as part of his one-day working visit to the region where he commissioned a 15MW solar power plant at Kaleo.<\/p>\n
President Akufo-Addo expressed gratitude to the chiefs for their support throughout his presidency and informed the Paramount Chief of the Waala Traditional Area, Naa Fuseini Seidu Pelpuo IV that he would be returning to the area with the New Patriotic Party (NPP) flagbearer, Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, as his successor.<\/p>\n
Asserting his commitment, President Akufo-Addo stated that he would not relinquish power to John Dramani Mahama, whom he defeated and removed from office in 2016.<\/p>\n
\u201cBefore the election is held, I am going to come here and pay my proper goodbye to you and thank you for the cooperation that I received from you when I was president.<\/p>\n
\u201cGod willing, when I come, I will come with the man who is going to be my successor. Wa Naa, you know that the man I removed from the seat, I cannot have him as my successor and as a traditional ruler, you understand what I am saying,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
The President, however, pledged his commitment to ensuring peace before, during and after the December 7 polls.<\/p>\n
\u201cOur country is known as the pacesetter for democratic government across the entire continent of Africa. I want to assure you that this year we are going to maintain that reputation. But I need your support and cooperation.<\/p>\n
\u201cI want us to work together to make sure that the peace and stability of our country is maintained all through the electioneering period and after,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n
