According to private legal practitioner and outspoken NPP member Maurice Ampaw, the real thing that kept the New Patriotic Party (NPP) up at night wasn't what Mahama had built - it was who he could touch. "The biggest fear wasn't Mahama's past achievements," Ampah confessed during his show on Wontumi Radio. "He could connect with ordinary Ghanaians in a way very few politicians could." He didn't mince words. "You may not like Mahama," he explained, "but you can't deny the man's gift.
He speaks the people's language.
He connects with market women.
He connects with the youth.
