Former Trades Minister and NDC presidential hopeful, Dr. Ekwow Spio-Garbrah has said, President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo deserves to serve only one term as president.
According to him, the passing of former President John Evans Fiifi Atta Mills while in office was the beginning of one-term presidency in the country breaking the two-term convention.
“We are now in the era of one term presidencyâ€, he said on the Good Evening Ghana show.
“Even though in the past we were used to serving two terms-former President Rawlings served two terms; former President Kufuor also served two termsâ€, the former Ghana’s ambassador to the United States under Rawlings’ regime pointed out.
“But with all due respect, the unfortunate demise of President Mills opened up the door of one term. …and that I think also in a certain physiological way made it easy for the people of Ghana to say let President Mahama also sit down even after one termâ€.
“We have now arrived at the era of one term presidency and that is why President Akufo-Addo must also serve one termâ€, Dr. Ekwow Spio-Garbrah explained.
The NDC presidential hopeful also used the platform to lash out at the government for doing little to check vigilantism which according to him, has become rife in the current government in the last ten months of their administration.
