The immediate past Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo cabinet has been the target of grave accusations from Mustapha Gbande, the National Democratic Congress's deputy general secretary.

In a January 9, 2025, interview with Yen Nsempa on Onua FM, Mustapha Gbande claimed that the Jubilee House, the official presidential residence, had been bugged by the Akufo-Addo administration.

The activity was an attempt to spy on and obtain information from the administration of freshly appointed President John Dramani Mahama, he said.

As they were leaving the presidency, we received information that they were bugging the premises to obtain additional information from the NDC and the next administration. They are malevolent individuals," he declared.

Gbande, explaining the delay in President John Dramani Mahama's move from his personal office to the Jubilee House, stated that security checks are currently ongoing to ensure the safety of President Mahama and his cabinet members.

He also explained that spiritual purifications are being conducted to protect the premises from any potential orchestrations.

“We had evil people occupying the seat so we need to cleanse and purify the place. They have to check the security and make sure the place is secured. You don’t think that the presidency requires some level of spiritual purification and security when the people have defrauded God with money?” he added.

According to the politician, Ghanaians should demand investigations into why the immediate past president carried his own chair while traveling, describing it as an unusual occurrence.

“Why did Akufo-Addo carry his own chair along when traveling? You don’t think the nation should interrogate why a president moves with his seat? You want the incoming president to go and sit on the seat that was being moved around and having its own designated vehicle?” he quizzed.

He justified Mahama's delay in moving to occupy the Jubilee House, asserting that it was not unusual or out of place.

“We are now putting measures in place to designate the necessary offices. It is all resetting and so I don’t think it is out of place that President Mahama is not operating from the Jubilee House,” he concluded.

President John Dramani Mahama is yet to move into the Jubilee House as he is currently working from his old office at Cantonments.
