Destroying Akufo-Addo’s 'legacy' will be in Ghana’s interest

“Legacy” is something that is passed on; it can take many forms and may be of
one's faith, ethics, and core values.

A Legacy may be monetary or asset. A Legacy may come from one's character, reputation, and the life you lead, setting examples for others and guiding their futures. A legacy can be good or bad or in the interest of a person.

President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo has made a frantic and hysterical
appeal to Ghanaians to vote against former president John Dramani Mahama because the latter will destroy his legacies. President Akufo-Addo was, however, unable to mention any of his legacies that would be destroyed by John Mahama.

This is because President Akufo-Addo has no positive legacies that will benefit this country; all his legacies are self-serving and family-enriching, hence his inability to list those legacies.

The president is only being selfish and self-centred in protecting the bad legacies that will only be beneficial to himself, his family, and the generations yet unborn.

The only legacies that President Akufo-Addo is on course to leave behind are
economic mismanagement, corruption, high national debt, high inflation, high
interest and exchange rates, nepotism, and bequeathing of national resources to
his family and descendants in the form of Agyapa deal, allocations of profitable
state institutions to his family and cohorts in order to be able to continue
controlling the country even in opposition, in the form of the PDS and the
recent SML scandals. Others include discrimination, gerrymandering, and abuse of
power and ethnocentrism.

Yes, former president Mahama will destroy President Akufo-Addo’s legacies of
destroying our environment and river bodies through illegal mining that only
benefits the NPP party’s foot soldiers, destroying relevant state institutions
such as the Electoral Commission by appointing party foot soldiers as
commissioners. The legacy of clearing corrupt officials will be destroyed; the
legacy of disrespecting chiefs will be destroyed.

President Akufo-Addo is aware of the NPP’s imminent defeat in the upcoming
elections and has therefore resorted to signing contracts that have the
propensity to commit to the country before he leaves office. Former President
Mahama, during his recent visit to the UK to inaugurate a new NDC branch in
Aldershot lamented the reckless and dangerous contract agreements being
signed by Akufo-Addo-Bawumia’s government and sent a warning to the contractors that "please, if they are trying to get you to sign a contract before January 7, please don't.”. He divulged that the government has just signed a contract for GHC 2.5 billion to dualize the Accra-Winneba road; meanwhile, the government owes GHC 77 billion in road areas, which they are currently unable to pay.

Former president Mahama warned that his government would not recognise all
such dubious agreements, including the SML and other related ones. These are President Akufo-Addo’s legacies that will be destroyed by former President John Mahama if he is elected on December 7, 2024; these are the legacies that President Akufo-Addo is desperately and frantically trying to protect by imposing Dr. Bawumia on us.

The president’s fear is justified in his selfish, grandiose mind. It is a matter of protecting his selfish interests and not Ghana’s interests. Destruction of these legacies will certainly be in Ghana’s interest; it will save the country from family loot, and it will save the country from being willed to one particular group of descendants to the detriment of the larger population.

Destroying President Akufo-Addo’s legacies by former President John Mahama
will be the best thing that will happen to Ghana; it will be beneficial to the
development of Ghana because the said legacies are bad and nation-wrecking.
Mr. President, YES, John Dramani Mahama will destroy your legacies because
they are bad and inimical to the development of this country.

Let us vote for H.E. John Dramani Mahama to destroy President Akufo-Addo’s
selfish and nation-wrecking legacies that are detrimental to the development
and progress of this country.
