The opposition party has given their approval to the former president of Ghana in his attempt to make a comeback.
John Mahama, the ex-president of Ghana, who has been selected by the primary opposition party to contest for the presidency in the upcoming year, stated on Monday that he believes the present government has let down the people of the West African country.
Mahama, who secured the National Democratic Congress (NDC) nomination in the party's presidential primary, alleged that the current President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo's government has mishandled the economy and misappropriated public funds.

The former president expressed his concern about the current government's mismanagement of the country's economy and its negative impact on the country's development during his acceptance speech in Tamale city, northern Ghana.
The level of corruption and misuse of public funds has reached its peak. Mahama won the primary election with 99% of the votes from approximately 335,000 delegates, defeating Kojo Bonsu, a former mayor of Kumasi. The announcement was made on Sunday.
The result indicates that he continues to have significant backing from the NDC, even though he departed from the president's position in 2017 after holding it for over four years.
