“The only way to get these people to account is to get them out of the space, get them out of power when they lose power.

Last week, John Mahama, on one of his regional ‘Thank You’ tours in northern Ghana averred that the ruling New Patriotic Party, NPP, are bent on retaining power beyond 2024 so that they can escape accountability.
