“I cannot impose anybody on you” – President Akufo-Addo tells Ghanaians

Wa, (UW/R), Oct. 03, GNA – President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo, has said he does not have the power and interest to impose any person on Ghanaians, to be elected as the next president in the December 7 polls.

“As President, I cannot impose anybody on you. I don’t have the power, and I don’t have the interest. Just as I was elected, the next person to stand here in my shoes will also be elected by the people of Ghana.

“But I believe that as an 80-year-old man who has been a two-term President of Ghana and who has been involved in a lot of Ghana’s recent history, certainly in the history of the Fourth Republic, I am in a good position to advise who should come and stand in my shoes,” he stated.

The President said this when he addressed stakeholders including the clergy and the Upper West Regional House of Chiefs, as part of his visit to the region.

President Akufo-Addo was in the region to thank the stakeholders for giving him the opportunity to lead the country for eight years and for the cooperation and collaboration they offered him during his tenure of office, resulting in maintaining peace and security throughout the period.
