    Who bears the transportation cost? The NDC, the State or the bereaved family?

  • Apuskele 7 years ago

    Good question. The answer is obvious, the State. Such foolishness can never occur in any developed country. Who knows? The costs could also have been borne by a contractor in Burkina Faso.

  • Big Boy 7 years ago

    You have asked a very stupid question. The bereaved family can buy a brand new aircraft for our dear mother.

  • M M lord 7 years ago

    Mahama family is too superior to depend on the state or Ndc for the cost OK!

    Do u want to pay?

  • Abdul-Hamid 7 years ago

    The state , if you are not happy burn the sea.
    If your mother happen to also give birth to a President she will qualify for same status.

    Very embarrassing prez JDM didn't. take home his mother while being mp, veep and prez, and only goes to his uncle's for her burial, not that he's burying her! How best could one "honour father and mother"? (Ex.20:5)
