President Nana Akufo-Addo is repeating some of the mistakes of his predecessor John Mahama, flagbearer hopeful of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), Alban Bagbin, has said.
According to the Nadowli Kaleo MP, Mr Mahama surrounded himself with inexperienced young people who could not offer him the right counsel to lead the country and his party, the NDC.
In Mr Bagbin’s view, Mr Akufo-Addo is repeating that “mistake”.
Although he said the youth have a role to play in the political space of the country, the veteran lawmaker said the experienced and elderly cannot be relegated to the background.
He told Joy FM that: “There are positions that you put them [youth] to bring them up...”
“I had an opportunity of even telling him [John Mahama] that it is very important to get very seasoned members who have gone through it all, who have made it in life and who are not going to look for material gains, but they are looking at the legacy they can leave behind, they will speak to you truthfully so that some of the mistakes you are making you don’t.”
He added: “His Excellency Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo is repeating some of the mistakes of John Mahama”.

The President appointed his loyalists but it takes more than his loyalists to effectively rule the country. The chief of staff is a true loyalist but weak not in the same stature as K Mpianim. Osafo Marco would have been much better. Those babies need to be controlled. There are too many ministries.
i personally want to thank mr gbagbin for his good advice to our dear lovely president nana addo.if nana will humbly listern to this advice it will help him a lot.this morning hon. agyapong said the same thing that some small boys at the flagstaff house are causing a lot of mess over there so nana should watch out. our king otumfour advised nana that those close to him will be the people who will cause his down fall and it has started just after one year a word to to the wise is enough.
