Ghana’s President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo has stated categorically that he has never backed any candidate in Nigeria’s upcoming presidential election as claimed in the media space.
He described as “completely false and mischievous, with no iota of truth whatsoever in it” the publication which he said was a “disturbing post” making round.
The president’s response is in connection to a Facebook post suggesting that he had written to the leader of the All Progressives Congress (APC) Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, asking him to “give Peter Obi a chance and seek treatment for his health.”
President Akufo-Addo in a tweet on Tuesday, August 9, 2022, said, “I have written no such letter to the APC leader, and it will not occur to me to do so.”
He maintained that there has been a firm coexistent relationship between the two West African neighbors for which reason he would be the last person to interfere in its internal affairs.
“Ghana and Nigeria boast of decades of cordial, strong, and brotherly relations, and I am not going to be the one to interfere in the internal affairs and politics of Nigeria,” Nana Akufo-Addo observed.
