UPP Flagbearer Endorses Nana Akuffo-Addo And Says Mahama Cannot Fix Ghana 'Even If Given 100 Years'

The disqualified flagbearer of the United Progress Party, Akwasi Addae Odike, on Wednesday pulled out of the race for the Presidency and threw his support behind NPP flagbearer Nana Addo Dankwa Akuffo-Addo.
Odike told Citi Fm that Mahama must be booted out of office because even if given 100 years, he would not be able to perform well.
“[Mahama] can’t deliver even given 100 years… he doesn’t deserve a renewed mandate.” Odike told the Accra based station.
According to him, he would throw his weight behind Nana Addo because he is a visionary who can transform this country.

“He (Nana Addo) is a man of action and Ghanaians are craving for change and we see change coming. We are joining the winning team to ensure that Ghanaians get the change we ask for.
“We are throwing our support for the candidate of NPP simply because his vision and our vision is almost the same. We believe in industrialisation, we think that industry is the best way to change the fortunes of this country for better.” Odike added.
“Secondly Nana Addo is a very humble person, Nana Addo is very affable and Nana Addo is a man of …intelligence. So we believe that if this man is in the helm of affairs of this nation and he is also a listener, we can advise him on so many ways to change the fortunes of this country for better.”
