Ghana’s main opposition leader John Mahama has said he has agreed in principle to meet the president Nana Akufo-Addo over current happenings in the West African country.
A cousin of the president and a political strategist Gabby Asare Otchere-Darko brokered the deal after meeting with the former flagbearer of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) at his residence on Tuesday 21 December 2021.
In a Facebook post, Mahama said they discussed several issues including the “desire of Ghanaians to see the two major political parties working together for the interest of the nation.”
He added: “We further discussed opening channels of communication between the leaders of the two parties including a possible meeting with the President at a future date.”
