Akwasi Addai Odike, the 2020 presidential candidate of the United Progressive Party (UPP) in an interview monitored by MyNewsGh.com has said that Akufo-Addo should resign as he has no moral justification to be president.

Sounding worried, he shouted, “Nana Addo I want to tell you today, that you’ve no moral justification to preside over this country as president”.

The businessman and politician charged the president as a matter of urgency to bring to book and prosecute all corrupt officials named in the leaked video who have compromised the fight against illegal mining.

“Prosecute your corrupt officials, they’re disgracing you, they’re doing the opposite of what you claim to fight,” he said.

“Akufo-Addo has failed Ghanaians big time, yet John Mahama is not an alternative. If I were the president I would resign. He couldn’t walk the talk. This very scandal proves he has no genuine commitment and dedication to the fight against illegal mining. …this is very disappointing!” he said on Pure FM.
