Purchasing items at GHC 50 and reselling them at GHC 1000-Asamoah Gyan

After John Mahama won the presidency in December 2024, former Black Stars captain Asamoah Gyan urged Ghanaians to support the new administration. The National Democratic Congress (NDC) leader, Mahama, will take the oath of office as president on January 27, 2024, after receiving 56% of the vote in the polls conducted on December 7. In response to the election results, Gyan emphasized the need of national unity and support on social media. He wrote, "Now is the time for us to unite as one people." "Let's put our country's development ahead of partisan politics."

Gyan asked Ghanaians to back the next government, emphasizing that cooperation between citizens and leaders is necessary for good governance, according to GHOne. He emphasized the negative consequences of some social actions, especially those related to the economy that make problems worse. Gyan said, "The country will suffer when you go and buy things at GHC 50 and sell them at GHC 1000." "For the country to advance, we must act responsibly and alter our mindset." His remarks highlight how citizens have a greater influence on the course of the nation than any government's actions.

While some have called for reconciliation to heal the tensions frequently observed in Ghana's political environment, others have cheered John Mahama's return to office. In the face of persistent economic difficulties, Mahama appealed to people by promising to give economic recovery and job creation top priority during his campaign. Political observers have pointed out that Mahama's victory puts a great deal of pressure on his government to fulfill these commitments. Gyan's plea is in line with more general appeals for unification, highlighting the need for teamwork to advance the country.
