This led to frustration among the general public and misunderstandings within the Ghanaian army.
According to Mr. Mahama, the Uprising “birthed the principles of probity and accountability” and must spur Ghana’s leadership to “work selflessly and tirelessly towards a brighter future for Ghana and uphold the legacy of those who came before us.”
