Ghanaian actor and NPP supporter,Prince David Osei, has voiced strong opposition to the potential return of John Dramani Mahama as president.
Speaking in an interview on GhOne TV on August 23, 2024, Osei argued that bringing Mahama back into office would be “like an insult” to Ghanaians.
He pointed out Mahama’s extensive political history, including his roles as an assemblyman, minister of information, parliamentarian, vice president, and president, questioning the need for his return when Ghana has a population of over 30 million people.
“Why must it be that one man becomes a president, goes through all the runs and comes back again? It looks like an insult to the whole of Ghana. Are we saying that in the whole country, there’s nobody else that can command the affairs of Ghana? Do we have to bring an ex-president?” he asked.
Osei expressed concern that relying on Mahama again suggests a lack of capable leaders in the country, asking why the nation must turn to a former president to lead once more.
He also criticized Mahama’s contributions to the creative arts sector, stating that he could not recall any significant achievements during his tenure.
In contrast, Osei praised the NPP’s initiatives, such as the “Year of Return” and “Beyond the Return,” for their positive impact on the industry, emphasizing that these efforts have had a more tangible influence on the creative sector.
