Market Woman Wants John Mahama To Enjoy a Third Term as President: “Who No Like Good Thing”

• A Ghanaian woman said she would want President John Mahama to enjoy a third term as Ghana's leader, considering his achievements in his second tenure
• The market woman gave reasons and explained how Ghanaians could go about retaining President Mahama, even though it is unconstitutional
• Social media users who watched the video shared varied thoughts in the comment section of the post

A Ghanaian woman said she wants President John Dramani Mahama to govern the country for a third term, even though the constitution does not allow for it.

The elderly woman who sells in Kumasi, Ashanti Region, said she hopes the majority of Ghanaians will allow President Mahama to govern for a third term.

In a video on X, the elderly trader assessed President John Mahama’s second term so far and said she was impressed, hence her reason for a third term.

The woman suggested that a presidential election should not be held in 2028 as planned, but rather, Ghanaian electorates should agree that President John Mahama governs for another four years.

“When he is done serving for his four-year tenure, we should allow him to continue governing the country. We, as Ghanaian electorates, should not vote for a new President so he can govern for eight years. President Mahama, in his second term, is governing the country right.”

“Even some of the NPP members who mocked him are doing well since he took over power. Also, the prices of certain goods have been reduced,” she added.
