    There is nothing more to add. Anyone who refuses to see what this government has done to the country Ghana should have their head examined!

  • Mr & Mrs Woyome Sada Gyeeda Subah 10 years ago

    Mahama should follow his own Security Advisor, General C.I.A. Nunoo-Mensah's advice and "pack up and leave Ghana, if the kitchen is hot"!

  • Nhyiraba-U.S.A 10 years ago

    The New Statesman don't be writing vague stories. This story doesn't have tail and head. I don't know what the hell this Newspaper talking about. It's sure bet that Mahama will win for second term coming 2016.

  • Kerriman 10 years ago

    The republic of Ghana should stop paying Mahama his salary and all his allowances due to his inefficiency.The republic of Ghana hired Mahama to lead the country and he proved to be inefficient; so he needs to be fired.
