In the last six years, he has gained more support from Ghanaians in and out of the NDC given the abysmal performance of the Akufo Addo-led government
John Mahama stood for election in 2012 after serving as president for six months following the death of former President John Evans Atta Mills.
Some Ghanaians have disliked John Mahama just because he is a Northerner or because of the kind of politics that was done leading to the 2016 and 2020 general elections by the NPP which used false propaganda to paint him as a demon but with Nana Addo in power for the last six years, Ghanaians have learned a bitter lesson from the leadership of Nana Addo.
