Ghana: " I deserve another term in office....." - President John Mahama

"I have done one term in office, and part of that term was taken by court litigation; And even then we have executed our mandate satisfactorily and am certain that, Ghanaians will give me the second term to make eight years (8) as required by the constitution."

A hopeful President Mahama told the gathering that he was sure of victory come the general elections. He also assured them of his commitment to transform the region and Hohoe to be precise. "I wish to assure you that as I continue my mandate, and I know that the people of Ghana will renew that mandate; by the time I leave office in 2021, we would have transformed the area so it becomes a commercial centre to boost trading and business activities."

 "...All of us should continue to do our good works and be dedicated to our country and I assure you that Ghana is going to be a land of prosperity; Ghana is a country that God has blessed and we should recognize the blessings that he has bestowed on us and when we do that, he will bestow more blessings on us," President Mahama said.
