I didn’t create paradise, but Ghana was better off under me – Mahama

John Mahama, the former President of Ghana and now flagbearer of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), has confidently stated that his tenure was far superior to the current administration under President Akufo Addo.
Mr Mahama refuses to downplay his accomplishments, instead emphasizing that Ghana was in a better state during his presidency.
“I wouldn’t say when I was president Ghana was Paradise. But I can beat my chest and say Ghana was far better than what is it today”he indicated
Mahama highlighted the significant economic challenges and social deprivation faced by Ghanaians under the current government, citing unprecedented levels of poverty, untold hardship,unemployment, lawlessness and social inequity.
In a recent address, Mahama outlined his vision for a “RESET Ghana,” focusing on transformative leadership, economic revival, job creation, social justice, and national unity.
He promised to tackle corruption, reduce government expenditure, and promote transparency and accountability.
Mahama’s potential presidency would prioritize economic revival through industrialization, agriculture, education, health and natural resource management.
He also aims to create decent, well-paying jobs for the youth, strengthen social interventions and educational reforms, provide universal access to affordable internet, and promote digital skills.
Mahama plans to support the arts and culture sector through initiatives like the Black Experience. His message is clear: he believes Ghana deserves better, and he’s committed to leading the country toward a brighter future for the next generation.
