Akufo-Addo was Ghana's worst-ever president; we'll witness change under Mahama—Kumchacha

Prophet Kumchacha has strongly criticised former President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo, describing him as the worst leader in Ghana's history. 

Kumchacha condemned Akufo-Addo's administration, calling it disastrous for the nation when speaking in an interview on Adom TV at the inauguration of President-elect John Dramani Mahama at the Black Star Square. 

We have all witnessed the poor governance under Akufo-Addo's leadership. The entire world recognises him as the worst president in Ghana's history. Today marks the end of his tenure, and that is why I am here. What we are witnessing today is tragic. Akufo-Addo is Ghana's greatest adversary. If you are asked to find the devil and you encounter Nana Addo, then you have found him.

Kumchacha acknowledged only one positive development during Akufo-Addo's administration—the reconciliation with the family of the late former President Jerry John Rawlings after years of estrangement. 

During his tenure, Ghana has endured significant hardship. The only commendable act was his reconciliation with Rawlings' family.

However, he criticised Akufo-Addo for what he described as financial mismanagement, particularly the allocation of $58 million for a project he referred to as a swimming pool while attempting to construct the National Cathedral. 

Even that was overshadowed by frivolous expenditures, such as spending $58 million to dig a swimming pool under the pretext of building a National Cathedral

Looking to the future, Prophet Kumchacha expressed optimism about Ghana's prospects under the leadership of John Dramani Mahama.

From today onwards, Ghanaians will experience positive changes. Over the next four years, under John Mahama's leadership, the country will see remarkable progress

John Mahama promises to make a difference

Meanwhile, John Mahama has promised to make a difference, assuring Ghanaians that he will take 26 actions in the period of 120 days in office. 

Your vote will matter in the work that I will do to make a difference.I'll take 26 actions within my first 120 days.

John Dramani Mahama was sworn in as Ghana’s president, while Prof. Jane Naana Opoku-Agyemang made history as the country’s first female vice president
