The gods of Bawumia keep betraying him lately. It appears that he's not getting away with his lies this time around without being exposed.

BAWUMIA has lost all credibility. The man is simply useless, clueless and inept. He keeps floundering and falling hopelessly and helplessly and haplessly into Mahama's trap. What the stupid Bawumia should have done was to simply give credit where it is due and improve upon it. This clown wants to be president of Kwame Nkrumah's Ghana! NO WAY!!!

NDC IS COMPARING ITS 1990’S BIG MOBITEL PHONE TO BAWUMIA’S IPHONE! BUT SOME OF US KNOW THE DIFFERENCE!

Hey Massa stop the nonsense! Okay? Metro card is not a full blown digital system, okay? In the US the metro card has been in existence for more than 30 years. Right now it’s getting phased out. On the other hand Bawumia’s plan has its US version that was introduced just couple of years before the COVID-19 pandemic. That system which can be paired with mobile money( MOMO) accounts and the ATM card. It is known as the OMNY system by the NYC MTA ( METROPOLITAN TRANSIT AUTHORITY). Your NDC is rather engaging in its usual political gimmicks. It’s NPP that’s giving NDC a breathing space. That’s the reason why I have vowed to join the NPP communications team if Dr Opoku Onyina is selected as the Vice Presidential candidate!

Empty Stephen Donkor must know that the Metro Card Mahama launched 10 years ago is similar to what we use in the West Coast called the ORCA card. NPP is struggling to bring any meaningful policy to benefit the country. The leadership of NPP are empty liars like Stephen Donkor himself. By the way, Opoku Nyina and DR. Bawumia will be defeated in the coming elections because of lack of credibility they carry. Many of us are going to Ghana to be polling agents in the Ashanti region to prevent the potential rigging of the 2024 election.

The video reminds of the abuse of power under John Dramani. Printing his posters of public owned buses. Back to the issue, if it was introduced then why didn't it see the light of the day? Because you introduced it without the fundamentals. That's the same thing that will happen to your 24-hour economy thing in the event that you win and try to implement. Nobody will here about it again after 1 year. Bawumia is successfully rolling out these things because government has build strong digital systems. Meanwhile he didn't say, the card never existed. Go back and read the statement.

Think!! Don't be a fool. Conceiving an idea, is the beginning to solving a challenge. Bawumia must always acknowledge the mastermind which conceives the ideas upon which he Bawumia builds and stop killing or stealing the ideas of others, repackaging them and portraying as if they are his ideas from the scratch. With the internet around to retrieve what others have begun, Bawumia will know no peace with this his stealing of the ideas of others. Bawumia balawu!!!

Leave the fool to wallow in ignorance. Where in Ghana does he come from that he doesn't know the Aayalolo rapid bus services was using the pre-paid card prior to change of government only fo the vindictive NPP government to come and stop its operation and grounded the buses in the various terminals to root.

I have used the card before and still have it in my possession. These NPP government and its supporters are worse than armed robbers and sensible Ghanaians are beginning to know their true colours.

The NDC never get things done, E- blocks they couldn’t complete it Ghana card the same, eastern corridor road, national health insurance, Dumso, Akonfem went to Burkina never came back, Asante Bekwai hospital uncomplicated, Ho Airport, Kumasi Airport, Sunyani Airport all never completed, when Nana completed them it’s becomes John Mahama project. What a pity nation building is continuity one person can never build the whole country what matters is to improve the lives of the citizens and not who do this and that the Ghanaian people are still suffering even though both NDC and NPP have both served Ghana but our lives are still the same poverty is still on going so I don’t see the point for people making noise about everything that goes on in the country.

It’s only in Ghana that we can have NPP politics dictate to voters how to think and never to believe their very eyes. I am waiting on the day NPP presidential candidate and current VP Dr. Bawumia would tell his loyal but ignorant support base that he, Dr. Bawumia, and the NPP brought cellular communications to Ghana. The disappointing aspect of Dr. Bawumia bundle of lies is that he has hypnotized a great many media houses to become allergic to facts and truths. Has anyone seen Dr. Bawumia buy a vehicle with GhanaCard, travel anywhere using GhanaCard or pay for a bottle of water using his GhanaCard? If not why is he making additional claims without being fact-checked?
