Popular Ghanaian actor Kwaku Manu has lauded President John Dramani Mahama for his humility and respect for others, even after holding the highest office in the country.
Speaking on the qualities he admires in Mahama, the actor noted that the president’s demeanor sets him apart from many public figures who allow power and wealth to change them.
He extended his admiration to Mahama’s family, particularly his brother, Ibrahim Mahama, whom he described as equally respectful.
“I just have a question: who raised the Mahama children? I have never seen a president who is so humble. There are people who have money and power, but they do not respect. But if you look at President Mahama and his brother, they are humble. They do not mind standing to greet anyone, no matter the person’s level,” Kwaku Manu remarked.
Citing a recent example to support his claim, the actor recalled an event where Mahama stood up to greet a sub-chief, despite being of a higher status.
“Before the elections, I saw that Mahama was very humble, but even after winning, he is still respectful. I am saying this because of a recent event where a chief approached Mahama to greet him, and the president himself stood up to greet him, despite the fact that it was a sub-chief. This is what we want in a president,” he said.
