Addressing a crowd at a durbar held at the Old Ghanata Astroturf in Dodowa as part of his ongoing ‘Thank You Tour’ on Friday, May 16, Mahama provided an encouraging update on the Vice President’s health, assuring Ghanaians of her recovery.
“I bring you greetings from H.E. the Vice President, Prof. Naana Jane Opoku-Agyemang. I had a conversation with her on Thursday, and I’m pleased to report that she’s fully recovered and will be returning to the country before the end of next week,” Mahama stated.
