Akufo Addo nkwasiasem.. Have the defunct capital bank customers been paid? Essien still remains a thief!
Akuffo Addo, the 3rd class and certificate less lawyer is a curse to Ghana. He is evil and shameless. He is just enjoying his last hour in office as a president by abusing his discretion.
Quran is toilet paper.
A fool dies quicker than expected.
@Stephano.Akufo-Addo is mean. He is a pig. If he elects himself into an NPP partisan guinea-pig; to steal, loot and murder, he must dance to it. Strip his immunity. Tie him to the stakes. To face firing squad. ASAP!
Brothers & Sisters, Head of State Acheampong, stood bold and took bullets. Yet, he Did No Wrong! He over-fed us, instead; with his Op Feed Yourself.Why is this idiot concealing undercover? Hiding his Testicles? Go, He Must!
Nana Addo must go!!!
Agreed.
Go, he Must!
Evil ugly chimp! How about those he killed?
Who killed more people than your Efo Jeremiah John Rawlings the Chief killer and Murderer with Boakye Djan?
Otabel should rather be in prison not this guy.
He took the bullet for that charlatan.
its your imbecile father
I bet you Frank Agyena-Karikari Rawlings house cleaning exercise was the best thing the country has ever had, why if you don't clean your dirty home Agyena-Karikari,you will become filthy all the time ok?
Here comes another opportunity for Agyena karikari, the incorrigible and unrepentant caveman to latch unto his favourite pastime - tribal bigotry to subtly attack a decomposed cadaver. Your bile will kill you. Puta madre!
Scottish bastard late JJ Rawlings has hurt Ayigbes so much..Only few Ayigbes benefited from his regime but the harm he caused them is irredeemable. It will take yrs for other tribes to accept Ewes.
Your Chimpanzee Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo, claims himself as a Human Rights' Activist. Like his false degrees, he does not discern his titles. So he kills innocent peo0le, including 14 year old girls withoit remorse.
Junior Jesus noticed too much filth every where. So by popular revolt, he led a House Cleaning campaign.
Through that you Agyene, breathed clean air. Up until your chimp re-inserted Akyem mafia filth. Go,read and learn
foolish talk, you rather piss on nana addo the evil and the devil in person.
Who is perfect in this world? If what you have once done comes to light, probably life sentence will seem charitable.
The reason why Africa remains impoverished and unable to free itself from the rot of corruption is because Africans don't take punishment seriously. When the developed world is building new prisons, we are trying to squash in ...

Is 620 million cedis not dollars damn it.
Akuffo Addo and drug. He is quick to release drug traffickers just after a year in prison. NPP is corrupt and full of drug traffickers. Most of them are in East Legon
Nana nie
What at all is going on in Akuffo Addo's head? Ehhhhh
Akuffo Addo, the 3rd class and certificate lawyer is a curse to Ghana. He is evil and shameless. He is just enjoying his last hour in office as a president by abusing his discretion.
Ato might have paid off the corrupt Akufo Addo and his underlings.
This guy is lucky . From the frying pan into the five star life .
They may have shared the money with him.
Does he have rights to institute pre-pardons? This list will be hundreds of kilometres long. Parliament can strip him of immunities and have him prosecuted, so he should add his name and remember the akyem mafia should all be ...

Evil juju haters of Akans, your own gods will continue to destroy you people cos you are evil breed of people.
The impudence of a dying cockroach. Pardon all the prisoners, you'll still go.
Why wont they be crooks and fraudsters? Granting pardon to financial criminals. Has the president also granted pardon to Mensah Otabil? Another criminals who started the cause of all these troubles in the financial sector
This deranged, dotard old fool is the most dangerous human being to have ever lived!
White collar criminals are difficult to deal with
Where is the dificulty? If you are encircled to the point of death, do you seek Reference Books? We "Fight or We Die".The Irish experienced it. Nana Addo is a moving crime. The future, Belongs NOT, to the faint hearted!
In fact, Akufo Addo is a Criminal Mobile Van.
The Van is Fiitted with Stool(VFwS), BoG cash box in attendance. To secure, bolster and show off NPP (criminal) philosophy, deep into communties and households.
Mensa Otabil dey fear cox JM already said he will pardon the guy when he come to office. So Nana needs to act fast make matter die. But still they will explain how they fucked up the money
I always stood up for Nana but this is way below belt. How can he pardon this guy when he still hasn’t paid back even 50% of the misplaced funds. So Ato is now free to come and spend his bounty. Jezzz Ghana is truly finishe ...

You "always stood up for nana"...well here's your verdict. The guy was reckless from the get go in his decision making but gullible people were hard to convince.
THE FINAL REWARD TO CORRUPTION…THE FINAL MIDDLE FINGER TO ALL GHANAIANS…THE FINAL ACT OF IMPUNITY BY A FAILED PRESIDENT!!!
Indeed
I remember the noise people made when Mahama granted pardon to contempt victims in this country. Contempt oooo. Sir John was contemptuous but was left off the hook because an NDC lawyer Adahugah begged the judge on his beha ...

Of course my Ghana is a veritable shithole country. God bless us all
So Greg AFOKO has not been pardoned? Sad!
NAADA, it seems you have nothing in-between your two ears. You are brainless! You pardoned the only person who your government has been able to convict under the financial sector crisis, which has cost the total humiliatio ...

This is the reason why there are so many wars going on on the African continent
Madoff, the ponzi scheme guy in the U.S.A, died in prison. In Ghana, NAM 1 is yet to sleep one day in prison and Ato Essien has been pardoned.
Akuffo Addo, you are a coward!!! Of all the tag of "no nonsense man", I have realised you are more than a timid and a coward person.
on the balance, our president's pardon is reasonable baring that of Ato Essien.
It screams intrigue. what happens to our money ?
#StopGalamsey#Why shouldn’t revoked bank licenses be restored?
NAADA paaa dieer! Ghana did a big mistake for voting for this president. Total disgrace.
The evidence was there the whole time, screaming at you who this guy is from the beginning. I never trusted this guy for president right from the beginning and am glad I never did. To come to this realization at the end of 8y ...

ORAL must deal with him. If not, OPAL must deal with him without fear or favour! OPAL is Operation Prosecute All Looters.
NAADA, you are the worst nightmare to happen to mother Ghana! Posterity will deal with you squarely! Aboa bi ba!

People take my inputs serious, others, not. So, watch Karma signs in his Last Days. Market collapse; human collapses; Exodus14:13-Disgrace;1st Lady gone amok; Now, see his Pardon Script. Blood clot inprints, visible all over.
See Srl 6 of Letter signed by Mr.(repeat Mr.but not HE) Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo.Title "HE", not and never again deserving forthwith. According to the 'Voice of the People', he is strpped of all Honours!!
People will continue to steal the nation knowing that they won't rot in jail
NPP is a criminal organisation. They knew very well that the guy was wrongfully accused and sentenced.
The truth will soon come out.
Mensah Otabil just get ready.
So why is Ata Ayi still in prison but allow ato Essien come out hmmm someone will one day sell the country to Elon Mask to be slaves,so we will then learn.

What about the Afia Nkwanta Hospital doctor who as sentenced 25 years for sodomy? He is teaching science in the hospital. He should have been among the prisoners released.

God will sentence akufo addo to 15yrs in hell fire for pardoning someone who chopped 650m ghana money!!
You are still clearing when you are playing extra time!!
Idiot!!!
Only poor people end up jail! What a shame!
Yes ooo. Sad.
But there are lot of other sick inmates in the prisons. Did he grant all of them amnesty? This is sad.
