'President Mahama is an angel without wings' - Blakk Rasta

Ghanaian reggae artiste and media personality Blakk Rasta has showered praise on President John Dramani Mahama for his style of leadership during his second tenure in office.

In an interview with Kafui Dey, shared on X on March 16, 2026, Blakk Rasta stated that President Mahama is “an angel without wings.”

He added that although he criticised the president during his first tenure in office, he has come to appreciate his efforts and humble nature.

“President Mahama, honestly, when I was growing up, I was told that angels had wings. This is the first time I’m seeing an angel without wings, and that’s President Mahama.

"To be honest with you, I criticised him during his first tenure. Whom haven’t I criticised? People criticise me too. And they have come to realise that I criticise them not to destroy them, but to build them,” he said.

Blakk Rasta further explained that he has criticised many high-ranking individuals in the country, but often does not even remember it when he later meets them in person.

“No malice at all. I criticise people and later meet them, and I don’t even remember that they once passed through my hot oven of critical baking. Well, I said a lot about Mahama, and Mahama is that gentleman. He will listen. Whether he chooses to react or let it go is up to him,” he added.
