Kwesi Ahwoi, a founding member of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) caused a stir at the nomination party for Professor Naana Jane Opoku-Agyemang when he offered some advice to the running mate of John Dramani Mahama for the 2024 elections.
In words of affirmation to Professor Jane Opoku-Agyemang, at the event which according to an Asaase Radio report was held at his office in Labone, Accra, Kwesi Ahwoi urged her to condition herself for the role of president as ‘anything can happen’.
Kwesi Ahwoi in a toast proposal, recounted the incidents that led to John Mahama becoming Ghana’s president in 2012, urging Professor Opoku-Agyemang to ready herself to step in, if such a situation arises again.
“John Mahama was not ready to be president at the time but nature schemed things in such a way that President Mills had to give way to John Mahama. Anything can happen, so Naana, be ever prepared as your motto says, anything thing can happen and you can become the President of the Republic of Ghana,” Kwesi Ahwoi said in a video that has since gone viral.
