Alan Cash And Dr. Bawumia Could Be The First Monday-Born Presidents In Ghana’s History

It’s quite unfortunate that amongst all the seven days in the week, Monday happens to be the only day where no Ghanaian president has been born in.

Alan Kyeremanten and Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia will be contesting for the flag bearer position in the NPP. Hopefully, one may get the chance to lead the party into the 2024 polls. Both Alan and Bawumia happens to be born on Monday.

The two are set to break this ‘curse’. Both Alan Kyeremanten and Dr. Bawumia are favorites to win the 2024 general elections. If such happens, they could be become the first president to be born on Monday in Ghana’s history.

Let’s take a look at the days in which each former or incumbent president was born;

Dr. Kwame Nkrumah

Ghanaians First president was born on 21st September, 1909. Using this date as published by many, it can be said that Ghanaians first president was born on Tuesday.
