Mahama fingers Akufo-Addo for strained Ghana -Burkina Faso relationship

Former President of Ghana and Flagbearer of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), John Dramani Mahama has expressed concerns over Ghana’s President’s role in the country’s strained relationship with Burkina Faso.

He is of the view that Ghana should have been working closely with Burkina Faso which is on the border to the North of the country.

The former President has assured the people of Ghana that the strained relationship with Burkina Faso will be addressed when the government changes because the two West African countries have to work together.

John Dramani Mahama made this known in a media engagement in the Upper East Region of Ghana to close his tour of the region.

“We must regain our trust with our neighbours from Burkina Faso to properly deal with insurgency and other security threats.

Unfortunately, this government has created some tensions between us and Burkina Faso because our President went to America and opened his mouth and gossiped about them.

Though he went there [Burkina Faso] to apologize, it is still not enough. So when we come back to power, we will work seriously with them and strengthen our border security system,” Mahama stated.
