The President of Ghana, Nana Akufo-Addo will mark 100 days in office next week, but he has already started touting his achievements.
The 73 year old who defeated the former President John Mahama of the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC) in last year’s elections made several promises to voters contributing to his electoral victory.
Nana Akufo-Addo has been detailing the promises he made to voters and those that have been fulfilled already, less than 100 days since taking over as president.
The president promised among others to reduce taxes, build factories, grow the economy and create jobs for the many unemployed youth in Ghana.
