Ghana’s President, H. E John Dramani Mahama, seems to have his plans all set out when he eventually hands over power to the President elect, Nana Akufo-Addo on January 7, 2017-and from all indications his next adventure will be in farming.
The charming President, who has been dubbed Commissioner in-chief on account of the hundreds of legacy projects he was able to complete and commission in his first term, dropped the hint of his next line of action in an interaction with our Editor in-Chief, Dele Momodu in Accra.
Bashorun Momodu, who spent the New Year as guest of President Mahama, was taken on a tour of a farm that the President is setting up, and Momodu posted a few pictures of the private visit on his instagram and twitter pages with the #Mahamaretiresintofarming.
President Mahama, it would be recalled, lost the December 7, 2016 Presidential Election to his NPP rival, Nana Akufo-Addo in a keenly contested election, a situation most Ghanaians have bemoaned considering the six years of infrastructural achievements the country experienced while he held sway.Responding to the development on Momodu’s Instagram page, followers have decried Mahama’s retirement, saying that they expect to see him again in 2020 to come and continue the good works he is known for. In the six years that Mahama ruled Ghana, first as an emergency President following the death in 2010 of his principal, H.E President John Evans Atta-Mills, and winning the election in 2012 to begin his first tenure, Ghana, has experienced a great infrastructural turnaround in all facets of the country’s economy including a complete overhaul of the Kwame Nkrumah Interchange, now famously called Ghana’s Dubai, which is the first of its kind in sub-Saharan Africa.

Right decision by JM,hopefully Nana Addo will build the dams for his farming activities.
I hate this Nigerian 419 Momodu. I just can't stand him and wish he is deported back home. He is part of Mahama's problems that sent him packing. Next time nso so bio. Mahama eee bye,bye oooooo Onaapo Flagstaff house Onaapo,Jubilee House Onaapo.
Is that the SADA project?I thought its for Ghana .Why is he taking the farms after his defeat.Am just thinking aloud ooo
WHY DO MAHAMA FANS ONLY TALK ABOUT THE INFRASTRUCTURE HE EMBARKED ON BUT NEVER TALK ABOUT THE MASSIVE DEBT HE HAS LEFT THIS COUNTRY FOR GENERATIONS TO PAY.IF GOVERNANCE IS ONLY ABOUT BORROW, TAX AND PUT UP INFRASTRUCTURE THEN A JSS GRADUATE CAN BE PRESIDENT.WHY SHOULD PEOPLE ACCEPT THIS MEDIOCRITY.LEE KWUAN YEE DID NOT TRANSFORM SINGAPORE WITH MASSIVE DEBT,ELSE HIS COUNTRY WOULD NOT HAVE FINISHED PAYING IN 100YRS
Let him be. His he the only person who has lost elections. If I were him I will not stand again. I have known him to be a farmer from youth so it is not surprising.
Can you check your dates and facts. Mahama was president for only one term which is 4 years. Atta Mills died only 6 months to elections in 2012. So, he served for 6 months as caretaker and then president from 2012. He was going for a second term which he lost on 7Drcember 2016. Most of the in fracture he commissioned are incomplete. This is why he lost. He did not do these projects for the desire to improve ghana, he did so in order to over invoice and collect kickbacks wth his brother. All these will be investigated this year. He is reported to be worth 900 million dollars. He needs to explain to Ghanaians how he made that money. As journalistyiur job is to report facts and corrects dates.
Is very good mahama is going into poultry after collapsing most of the businesses with high tax.If you do good it will follow you.
good job done jm. may the good Lord keep you and your family together.
Good job JDM. A class of your own. dont mind haters, haters are inferior
Mahama didn't rule for six years and Mills didn't die in 2010. This same article appears in Ghanaweb.com verbatim. WHO COPIED WHO? Lazy journalism
