Henry Nana Boakye accuses Mahama of ‘deceptive’ stance on presidential term limit
According to him, while President Mahama has publicly stated that he has no intention of seeking more than two terms in office, his comments on a pending matter before the Supreme Court leave room for what he believes could become a dangerous constitutional precedent.
He argued that Article 66(2), which states that "a person shall not be elected to hold office as President of Ghana for more than two times," leaves no room for an interpretation based on consecutive or non-consecutive terms.
The National Organiser of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), Henry Nana Boakye, has accused President John Mahama of adopting what he described as a "deceptive" posture over the ongoing debate on the constitutional interpretation of presidential term limits.
