President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo, without mincing words, has emphasized his intention of not handing over power to the opposition party, the National Democratic Congress (NDC).
During his address to the chiefs and natives of Wa, which was monitored by 1Family Radio, the president reiterated his commitment to ensuring a peaceful and fair election prior to the December polls.
He furthered this by announcing to the chiefs that on his next visit, he would come along with the man who would be his successor.
“I will come here and pay my proper goodbye to you and thank you for the cooperation that I received from you during my tenure of office before the general election is held.’’
He continued, “If God permits, when coming, I will come with the man who is going to be my successor. Wa Naa, you know that the man I removed from the seat, I cannot have him as my successor, and as a traditional ruler, you understand what I am saying.’’
“Our country is known as the pacesetter for democratic government across the entire continent of Africa. I want to assure you that this year we are going to maintain that reputation. But I need your support and cooperation.’’
“I want us to work together to make sure that the peace and stability of our country are maintained all through the electioneering period and after,’’ he added.
