Let me enjoy my American citizenship- Michael Blackson declines calls to run for President of Ghana

Ghanaian-American actor and comedian, Michael Blackson has declined a call by some social media followers to run for president in Ghana.

The actor has become very popular in Ghana after he commissioned an ultramodern “free for all” school facility  in his hometown, Agona Nsaba in the Central Region within the space of two years.

Blackson’s benevolent gesture has scored him so many points on social media and some of his followers have encouraged him to run for president as an independent candidate.

However, Blackson has stated in a tweet that he cannot contest at the moment because he just became an American citizen after living and working in the country for over a decade.

Blackson states that he should be allowed to enjoy his American citizenship for a while before he thinks about running for the higher seat in Ghana.

Michael Blackson continued by saying that he is not even very familiar with all 16 regions in Ghana where he may be expected to accept such a responsibility.

 ‘‘Ghana, I appreciate this but not right now, I don’t even know all the 16 regions in Ghana lol.
