Suspended Member of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) Allotey Jacobs has dresribed President Akufo-Addo as a mature leader leading the country into prosperity presently.

“I see President Nana Akufo-Addo as a matured president who is leading this country into prosperity”, the suspended NDC chairman said on Akoma FM in Kumasi.

Allottey Jacobs noted that he had known President Nana Akufo-Addo for some time now, therefore he would offer him the support to succeed in political office.

“Once upon a time, he was a socialist now he is implementing social democratic policies and I will support him to succeed with Vice President, Dr. Bawumia”.

According to him, the president was on the right path so far therefore he would offer his unflinching support to help the president deliver for the country.

Allottey Jacobs also stressed that he greatly admired Vice President Dr. Bawumia, stressing that the Vice President was a great asset for the country.

“Vice President Dr. Bawumia is so fascinating and unique and he is the new kid on the block”, he said, adding that he would also support him to deliver.

In a related subject, 3news.com reports that the same Allotey Jacobs has disclosed his interest to work with the New Patriotic Party if the opportunity presents itself.

According to him, President Akufo –Addo is a good leader who puts Ghana ahead of his personal interest, hence he would want to work with him.

Mr Jacobs was speaking in reaction to the victory of the NDC’s E.T. Mensah in the just ended Council of State election.

“I support Mr E.T. Mensah and I support his victory which I know he will exhibit his rich experience to help Nana Akufo-Addo,” Allotey Jacobs said.

He believes E. T. Mensah’s victory opens the gate for politicians who are open-minded like him to serve in the government of an opposing political party.

“…there are some radical people in the NDC who would verbally attack an open-minded people like us, but, if I am given an opportunity in the NPP’s government and it is the will of God, why not I will serve,” he added.
