Ghana's first President, Osagyefo Dr. Kwame Nkrumah's son, Sekou Nkrumah has lashed out at the current administration, denting the credibility of President John Dramani Mahama for the 2016 general elections.

Speaking in an interview with Peacefmonline.com, Sekou Nkrumah insisted that President John Mahama would not be a good candidate for the ruling National Democratic Congress, come 2016.

According to him, the President has failed to be better than his predecessors who, in his view, couldn't salvage the economy from its over-reliance on international aid.

Sekou Nkrumah averred that President John Mahama, instead of managing the nation's resources to boost the progress of the economy, has also replicated the attitude of past governments. In view of this, he posited that President Mahama is not a "good Presidential material going forward for 2016."

“I don’t think President Mahama is a good candidate…I wish to see another candidate but going by what the NDC has shown, it looks like they will not change the candidate," he added.
