President Nana Akufo-Addo has never asked the All Progressives Congress (APC) presidential candidate Bola Tinubu to step aside for the Labour Party (LP) flag bearer, Peter Obi.
This was disclosed by the Ghanaian High Commissioner to Nigeria, Mr Rashid Bawa, in a statement on Sunday, in Abuja.
Mr Bawa refuted the publications circulating in the media alleging that Akufo-Addo had written Tinubu to give Obi a chance to seek treatment for his health.
He said Ghana and Nigeria have had decades of cordial relations in line with the tenets of democratic governance, rule of law, respect for and adherence to the principle of non-interference in the internal political mechanisms of other countries.
The statement said. “To that end, the President of the Republic of Ghana will not interfere in Nigeria’s internal affairs and politics, as captured in the series of tweets of Tuesday, 9 August 2022, from His Excellency’s Twitter handle (@NAkufoAddo).
“It is hoped that this added perspective would serve to dispel misconceptions created by the online publication.”
