Former First Lady Nana Konadu Agyemang Rawlings has described the Mahama-led administration as the “epitome of corruption”.

Speaking to Fiifi Banson on Kasapa FM Thursday, the former first vice chair of the ruling party said the government has performed poorly in areas of governance, economy and fight against corruption.

“They (government) are the epitome of corruption. Their type is unprecedented in the history of this country. It is a level of corruption never seen before in this country,” Mrs Rawlings who has been an avowed critic of the administration fumed.

She added that the Mahama government has reversed the gains that Ghana made under the leadership of her husband Jerry John Rawlings.
