    WAS HARUNA ATTAH EXPECTING BAWUMIAH TO SING DIRGES AT THE LECTURE? OR TALK FOR THE MASSES WHO ARE SUFFERING BECAUSE OF BAD POLICIES BY GOVT

  • Kwaku 10 years ago

    Haruna Atta is hungry so is now relying on Mahama for food,you shouldn't forget Mahama can't get access to Nana Konadu so what is meant for Nana is given to Haruna.So please forgive Haruna for being anti NPP.

    haruna atta seems to have an agenda now that there is a vacancy in mahama's govt. If you want Vicky Hammahs position just say so and stop denigrating others to achieve it.
