Amissah-Arthur: Mahama added ‘a touch of pure class’ to the presidency

Barely nine hours of becoming a former vice president, Paa Kwesi Armissah-Arthur has been paying glowing tribute to his boss, President John Mahama who exited office midnight Friday.

Few hours to the inauguration of Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo on January 7 as Ghana’s next president, Mr Amissah-Arthur took to the micro-blogging site, Twitter, to express how Mahama was committed to transforming the country.

He tweeted: “President John Mahama was deeply committed to the transformation of Ghana,” and stated the now ex-President Mahama added what he termed “a touch of pure class” to the presidency.

President John Mahama was deeply committed to the transformation of Ghana. It was brilliant working with him. He adds a touch of pure class.
