Nana Boadi Amponim Abodade III, the Krontihene of Akyem Asuom, has emphatically called on divine intervention to prevent Ghana from ever enduring another presidency like that of Nana Akufo-Addo.

He condemned the tribulations faced by the nation under Akufo-Addo’s regime, accusing government officials of brazen pillaging and describing the administration as catastrophically ineffectual.

Addressing journalists, Nana Abodade III conveyed his profound relief that President Akufo-Addo’s time in office would finally conclude in just over a week.

"Overall, we thank God that the good Lord is about to hand the mantle to President Mahama. As stated in Luke 10:29, Ghana has been stripped naked. Ghana is bleeding; the robbers have stolen all the goodies. But now, a good Samaritan has come to rescue her, restore her to good health, and recover the stolen loot. It was quite clear, but some people just didn’t realize it. Some of us are happy that his reign is coming to an end," he said.

Nana Boadi Amponim Abodade III further noted that numerous chiefs are glad to witness the departure of President Akufo-Addo, whom they believe showed disrespect toward some of their peers during his tenure.

"A lot of chiefs are happy. A good friend of mine, who is also a chief, told me, ‘Let’s see if he [Akufo-Addo] will now go around and instruct chiefs to stand up and greet him.’ It is not a good legacy. He could have achieved much more. He had so much revenue and so many opportunities to do good for this country. We pray we never have another Akufo-Addo as President of Ghana. Overall, we thank God that the good Lord is about to give the mantle to President Mahama."
