Presidential
candidate for the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC), John Dramani
Mahama has urged President Akufo-Addo and his appointees to start writing their
handing over notes from now and get ready to give account for their
stewardship.
According to the
former President, his re-election to lead the NDC into the 2024 election is
just the beginning of events that will pave the way for the party’s recapture
of power from the incumbent New Patriotic Party (NPP).
