The ‘collapse’ of five local banks has dominated talk on social media in Ghana over the last few hours but the latest tweet by former President John Dramani Mahama appears to have stolen some of the limelight.
Mr Mahama tweeted:
Lessons in Ghanaian politics- don’t use idioms in relation to yourself. They’ll stick. pic.twitter.com/HRfp9r2VRL

And of course, there were hundreds of responses….
Mahama, while serving as President, is famously known to have said he had “a dead goat syndrome.” amid agitations by labour groups.
It’s unclear whether his comments are a slight dig at President Nana Akufo Addo who recently said: “I am aware that you give a dog a bad name in order to hang it, but this dog will not be hanged.”
One thing is certain though; Mr Mahama knows how to get social media talking.
