President John Mahama has shot down claims that he intends to use his current tenure to push constitutional amendments that would allow him to run for a third term as president.
He stated categorically that he was not a supreme leader, nor would he want to use his party’s numbers in Parliament to push an agenda that will undermine our democracy.
Speaking at the Presidential Media Encounter at the Jubilee House on Wednesday, September 10, 2025, the President, when questioned, said: “Look in my face, do I look like a supreme leader?”
He was responding to a question posed to him about whether his so-called “legacy term” would embolden him to seek an extension of Ghana’s presidential term limits.
”That is, to paraphrase Prof Atta Mills, do I look like a cat Hunter? Do I look like a supreme leader? I’m a Democrat, through and through. And even when we attained two-thirds of Parliament, I said that we are not going to use it to ride roughshod over the minority, and that we are going to give opportunity for democracy to flourish. And so we know we intend to use that two-thirds majority to steamroll our democracy.”
