John Dramani Mahama, former president and NDC 2020 presidential flagbearer has stated that the time is ripe for the 1992 Constitution to undergo ‘nipping’

He disclosed this on 12th October, 2022 in an interview with the Voice of America, VOA, Africa Service that new NDC government will ‘look at the Constitution again.

One of the things we would do when we come back, that is the NDC… one of the things that we would do is like I said is strengthen state institutions and anti corruption institutions but most importantly look at the constitution again. We have been operating this constitution for more than 26years and I think that the time has come for us to look at it again and do some nipping or tweaking in order that we can have a proper constitutional environment in which we can grow the economy. So those are some of the things that we would look at. 


Mahama hinted that the presidential term in Ghana is a 4-year term, there’s little in terms of infrastructure. We will do our best to invest in education, the health sector, and economic infrastructure 

He stressed that all efforts must ultimately be “geared towards creating opportunities for especially the young people to be able to realize their full potential and find jobs in the economy.”
