‘Doctors say you’re 20 years younger, but go easy’ – Mahama to Opoku-Agyemang



President John Mahama has urged Vice President Jane Naana Opoku-Agyemang to gradually ease back into her official duties following her return from medical leave.

Speaking at a brief welcome event in Accra on Thursday, 22 May, the President acknowledged the Vice President’s improved health while encouraging her not to rush her recovery.

“The doctors say you are 20 years younger. That is what the professor told me—that you are okay and fit for the job,” Mr Mahama remarked, citing the positive assessments given by medical professionals.

Despite the optimistic medical report, the President advised caution.

“We will ask that you take it easy for a little while, and after that, we will see how things go,” he said.

Vice President Opoku-Agyemang had embarked on an extended medical leave that went beyond the initial three-week period announced by the government.

After preliminary treatment at the University of Ghana Medical Centre (UGMC), she travelled abroad for further medical attention, prompting national conversation about her health and the functioning of the executive.
