Mahama comeback: I’d love that – Sweet Adjeley
US-based Ghanaian chef Sweet Adjeley has said she would “love” to see former President John Mahama back in the Golden Jubilee House.
Her reason was simple: road infrastructure.
She was guesting on the Class Morning Show on Class 91.3 FM, when Prince Benjamin (PB) asked which candidate she would want to win power in Ghana come December. She had chosen Kamala Harris for the US, prior, her reason being, among other things, Trump’s tenure was scary and she and her family felt unsafe.
“Geez!” she exclaimed appearing to appreciate the weight of the question.
“I’d love that [President Mahama returns],” Sweet Adjeley finally responded.
“Look, growing up in Ghana our roads have never been this bad. Take the barrier [towards] Tema [and] going. Nungua Barrier, for instance. That's where I live. From this place [Labone] to my house, it used to [take] 20 minutes [but] now [it is] over an hour. They've been fixing that road for years. It's an embarrassment.
“The first time I came to Ghana when he [Mahama] was president, I was impressed” with the quality of roads and their maintenance.
She clarified, she did not have any personal relationship with the former president and flagbearer of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), nor was she under the influence of money.
“I don't know him. He doesn't give me money. None of the people gives me money,” she said.
She stressed: “But growing up in Ghana, the regular roads were good [while] the side roads have always been bad. But now there's like a swimming pool in the middle of the road when it rains.
“I get anxiety when I am on the road and it wasn’t like that for me before,” the celebrity chef bemoaned.
