President Akufo-Addo says he does not drink alcohol.
"I don't drink alcohol. Everybody
who knows me know that I don't drink alcohol," he said, while delivering
the State of the Nation Address (SONA) to Parliament on Tuesday, February 27,
2024.
President while delivering the SONA, started experiencing incessant
coughs, hence requested for water.
Shortly after
he was served with water in a glass, he picked his glass of water to sip,
jokingly declaring that what he was sipping was not alcohol and that he does
not drink alcohol.
The SONA is in accordance with article 67
of the 1992 constitution that says the President should give the State of the
Nation Address at the beginning and close of every Parliamentary Session.
The State of the Nation Address is an
annual address to Parliament given by the President of the Republic covering
economic, social and the financial state of the country.
