The Ashanti regional Chairman of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), has said former president Mahama should have bowed his head in shame and refused an invitation to join the Ga community in the Greater Accra region to mark Homowo.

According to Bernard Antwi-Boasiako, former president Mahama did not do any social intervention project during his term in office to improve the lives of Gas living along the coast.

Former president John Dramani Mahama joined the Ga community in the Greater Accra region to mark its annual festival, Homowo.

John Mahama who is also the 2020 flagbearer of the opposition National Democratic Congress shook hands, waved and beamed through the crowds that came round him.

According to Chairman Wontumi, unlike Mahama and the NDC who didn't have the plights of the Ga community at heart, the administration of President Akufo-Addo would soon build ten fish landing sites along the coastal areas of Ghana for the benefit of fishing communities.

He explained that as part of the broader government agenda to provide fish landing sites along the coastal communities, the Akufo-Addo led government has secured funding for ten of the sites.
