The founder of the now-defunct United Progressive Party (UPP), Akwasi Addai Odike, has said the ghost of the late President John Evans Atta Mills will prevent former President John Dramani Mahama from becoming President again.
This, he explained, is because Mr. Mahama rarely mentions Atta Mills’ name during his campaign.
“Atta Mills’ ghost will never let Mahama become President again. You see, that is why he never mentions his name during his campaign,” Odike said in an interview on Adom FM’s morning show Dwaso Nsem, Wednesday.

Former President Mahama, flagbearer of the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC), faces his main opponent, Vice President, Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, in the December elections.
Both presidential candidates from the Northern region will be competing for electoral supremacy in the five northern regions and the Zongo communities which have traditionally supported the NDC since the inception of the Fourth Republic in 1992.
However, the support for the NDC has decreased since the emergence of Dr. Bawumia in the political arena.
Interestingly, both candidates come from regions that were carved out of the Northern Region. Dr. Bawumia is from the North East, while Mahama hails from the Savannah Region.
