Frank Annoh Dompreh, the Member of Parliament for Nsawam Adoagyiri, recently admitted that he was among those who did not foresee John Dramani Mahama making a political comeback
According to MyNewsGH, On his previous stance, Annoh Dompreh revealed that he had strongly believed Mahama’s defeat in the 2016 elections had irreparably damaged his political future, especially considering the overwhelming loss and the feedback from the public at the time.
However, following Mahama’s victory in the 2024 presidential election, Annoh Dompreh expressed a change in perspective, acknowledging the unexpected turn of events.
“I never thought President Mahama would be president again. I believed he wouldn’t come back, given the circumstances,” he stated on Accra-based Starr FM.
He also emphasized that his initial assessment was based on the prevailing sentiment in the country and the widespread belief that Mahama had lost the people’s trust.
The MP continued, admitting that Mahama’s comeback had defied his expectations.
“That is why I’m saying you should never say never… I’ve eaten the humble pie,” Annoh Dompreh confessed, pointing at the surprising nature of Mahama’s success in securing over 56% of the vote in the 2024 elections.
The win not only solidified Mahama’s return to power but also was a decisive victory for his party in the parliamentary elections.
Annoh Dompreh’s acknowledgment highlights the unpredictable nature of politics and the realization that, in politics, “God can do anything.”
