Private legal practitioner Martin Kpebu has expressed shock at what he describes as the greed of outgoing President Nana Akufo-Addo.
Speaking during a panel discussion on TV3 on Saturday, December 28, 2024, as monitored by Ghanaweb, Kpebu questioned why a leader of Akufo-Addo’s stature would exhibit such greed.
“…I mean, look at the greed. You come in at age 73, and you are so greedy—greedier than John Mahama, who is not even a lawyer,” lawyer Kpebu stated.
He criticized President Akufo-Addo for what he described as a poor performance during his tenure, despite years of high expectations that he would lead Ghana to prosperity.
“In 2016, I openly voted for Akufo-Addo and supported him because they said he had been prepared for 40 years. So, I keep saying, can you imagine how Akufo-Addo would have been if he had prepared for only 10 years? The story was that Akufo-Addo had been prepared from birth to be president—for 40 years. What would his performance have been like if he had prepared for only ten years? I am sure that by now, Ghana would have ceased to exist.”
President Akufo-Addo rose to power after winning the 2016 general election on his third attempt at the presidency.
He exits office on January 7, 2025, having served as the President of Ghana for eight years.
