Watch viral video of Mahama asking chiefs to remain seated while greeting them

President John Dramani Mahama has been trending across social media platforms after he requested that some chiefs in the Volta Region remain seated while he exchanged pleasantries with them.

The president, who is currently in the Volta Region as part of his Thank You tour following his victory in the 2024 election, was captured at a public gathering greeting chiefs and leaders of the community.

In a viral video, Mahama is seen approaching some chiefs, who stood up to shake his hand. However, he signaled them to remain seated while he greeted them.

This gesture has sparked mixed reactions on social media.

Many have compared it to a similar moment involving former President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo where he ordered chiefs to stand up and greet him during his administration. The video of that incident has also resurfaced online.
