Politics has always been a game of strategies - sometimes clean, often messy, but rarely honest.

And in the heat of Ghana's fiercely contested 2024 elections, a truth many suspected but never heard officially has now been boldly confirmed by someone from within.

Lawrence Ampaw, a known legal practitioner and a proud member of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), has stunned many with a rare admission - an open confession that the NPP knew John Dramani Mahama was no joke.

Contrary to what was sold to the Ghanaian public, they didn't see Mahama as a tired ex-president clinging to lost glory.
