Deputy National Communications Officer of the NDC Kwaku Boahen has unsurprisingly jabbed president Nana Akufo-Addo over his age, claiming that he’s old and cannot lead the country.
On Thursday, Chairman of Mo Ibrahim Foundation, Mohammed Mo Ibrahim descended heavily on some African countries for allowing old men to become presidents instead of young and intellectual African youths.
According to him, countries that are doing better than African countries back young presidential candidates.
The renowned Sudanese-British businessman and philanthropist made this remarks at an event in Kigali with the Rwandan President Paul Kagame, Olusegun Obasanjo, Nkosazana Dlamini-Zuma and William Ruto in attendance discussing Leadership for the African we want.
He said the continent of Africa is a continent of young people where many of them are in their 20s yet the average age of our Presidents is about 63-64 years old.
And discussing the issue on Happy FM, the vociferous assistant scribe of the former ruling party, agreed with Mr. Ibrahim’s assertion and pointed out to the age of Ghana’s president, Nana Akufo-Addo, who is 73-years old, as the cause of the hardship that has befallen the countries since he took over office in 2016.
“Akufo-Addo [president] is destroying the country with his old age,” Boahen stated on Happy FM.
“He is old, I don’t understand why people voted for him in the first place and he’s corrupt too. Look at where he has taken Ghana to?
However, in responding to the dig by Kwaku Boahen, member of the NPP communications team, Davis Opoku, who is known in the political circles as ‘OPK’, insisted they are the best thing to happen to Ghana in a long while.
“The NPP government is the best political party for Ghana, not NDC. The only thing they [NDC] know how to do is loot and share. We are working towards the betterment of Ghana.”

These N D C boys seem not to learned any lessons after their disgraceful defeat in 2016, the other time one of their funny characters said the presidency was not for short people, today we are been told old age is a taboo. N D C does not know that old age is wisdom and God says the only people he respects a lot among humans are people with grey hair,at times i ask whether N D C has older people, if the likes of Alhaji Mahama Iddrisu, Dr kwabena Adjei, Mr Issifu Ali,Prof Kwesi Botchway etc are still with the N D C, then this small boy should think again. Rawlings knew very early that 'old age is wisdom' and that's why almost all the P N D C members were older than him and they gave him wise counsel leading to the birth of the N D C of which you claim to be a 'deputy destroyer of communication'. Won't Kweku Boahen wish that his parents live to a hundred so that he can at least so appreciation for their toil in bringing him up?,the likes of these boys will continue to keep N D C in opposition for a long time to come, mark my words

the sitting president is fulfilling scriptures..but those who hope in the LORD will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint.DR DR NANA AKUFFO ADDO IS now defines as a 20yearS old.... man
