A video of President Akufo-Addo cutting his 79th birthday cake has been circulating online and causing amusement.
The footage shows the President blowing out the candles on his cake with great force, but the flames continue to burn. His attempts to extinguish the candles are met with laughter and the realization that age may be catching up with him.
Eventually, his wife steps in to help him cut the cake, but even then, it becomes apparent that he is struggling to hold the knife. The event was attended by Vice President Bawumia and other dignitaries who joined in the celebration.
The video has prompted humorous comparisons between Akufo-Addo and Nigeria's Tinubu, with many viewers commenting on the aging process catching up with the President.
