Gabon Coup: Nana Addo and Bawumia must step down for early election – Martin Kpebu

Private Legal Practitioner Martin Kpebu has suggested the immediate resignation of President Nana Addo and his Vice Mahamudu Bawumia, for early elections to be held.

Speaking on ‘The Key Point’ on TV3, the renowned lawyer reiterated that Ghanaians are taking cue from the ongoing Coup and mayhem in Gabon hence the President must resign before the unthinkable happens.

“What do we learn from Gabon, you see as the people got tired, they said away with Ali Bongo, in that same way, I’m thinking what we learned from it in Ghana is that fortunately for us even though we are also suffering and there is hunger and about 3 million of our citizens can’t survive living on $1.90cents a day, which is about 24 Ghana Cedis, our constitution says that there can be early elections.

Article 60(13). So, president Akuffo Addo and Bawumia should just step down so that we can go for an early election within three months, that’s the lesson because the way people are getting despondent, we already have the Arab spring here, you never know, they should just go”

“Last week he admitted it on tape, you’ve seen the video he says the next leader will come and take us out of the difficulties, so what is he doing in the office, he should go now. He said.

President Akuffo Addo has, however, condemned the frequent emergence of coups in Africa, referring to the menace rather as a hindrance to the development of the African continent.
