A video has surfaced online revealing President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo literally snubbing former President John Dramani Mahama during the ongoing Peace and Security Forum at the Kofi Anann International Peace Keeping Centre (KAIPC).
The Commander-In-Chief of the Ghana Armed Forces who was exchanging pleasantries with other former Heads of State including Pierre Buyoya Former president of Burundi was seen smiling and sharing some few words as the shook hands.
On arriving at Mr. Mahama, the President showed what could pass for a straight face without a smile as was the case of the other dignitaries and passed on raising suspicion if there is bad blood between the two.
The handshake appeared feeble without any emotional attachment compared to the rest of the dignitaries which has left social media buzzing as to what could be the possible cause.
