    Beating about the bush. Azar thinks and writes like an azaa man. Laws in place in Ghana are the relevant specifics to talk about.
    Don't veer into laws that are expected to be. You ain't a consultant.
    Clear case. Bribery c ...

    Will the NPP go on demonstration when Berko is jailed? Bawuliar will have to fly there with his entourage.

    Let President Mahama make the mistake and try to run away to USA,like Ken Ofori Atta the American Courts will jail him for 60yrs. The American Courts currently have 2 Evidences against JDM to jail him, Airbus & this case.

  • Nii 10 hours ago

    Mahamaliar will never think going to the USA like Ken.60 years await him.

  • H.E. The Ugly Dwarf 7 hours ago

    Why will Mahama want to live in cold and lawless USA? Is Ghana not a better place to live in? Some of you are so crazy about abrokyire.

    That's not entirely true. Not only the Payer & Receiver of the bribe who shd be punished but the Govt under whose regime the crime took place. They created the opportunity and allowed Criminals to exploit. The Govt and leader ...

    @Kwasi, you're very right. This Azar guy would been all over the place advocating for the immediate arrest and trial of all the guys implicated in this scandal if they were Nana Addo's appointees. He's totally lost the respec ...

    @Kwasi, the man is an azaa man and, as you rightly said, if this corruption case occurred during the time of the previous government, he would have jumped over the roof with his usual buffoonery. He is a hypocrite.

  • EFO KOKU 11 hours ago

    GOVERNMENT OFFICIAL ONE
    This is the era of the Airbus bribery that Akuffo Addo looked on unconcerned. Mahama is a smooth criminal and would have been in jail if Ghana was a serious nation.

    JOHN MAHAMA, YOUR PRESIDENT WAS A BRIBEE IN THE FAMOUS AIRBUS SCANDAL...BUT YOUR SO CALLED OSP FREED HIM AND HE IS WALKING FREE...KWAKU AZAR (AZAR MEANS A LIAR), WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT?...TWEAA.

  • Capt Adabuga 11 hours ago

    And you think a president who himself is a beneficiary of past bribery in the Airbus scandal will be interested in punishing others who also have engaged in same?

  • Apart, I'm confused..... 10 hours ago

    Apart, I'm confused. Did Ghana do anything to Government Official One in the other scandal?

  • First Thing First 9 hours ago

    Yes you are on point.
    Kwaku Azar is writing like somebody who is not interested in the current corruption case and for authorities, ultimately President John Dramani Mahama to immediately act on it

    This damage control will not work. Corruption in the NDCis inherent. We have no SC or OSP to clear them.

    Dzimakplaa Buuluuu Kplotooobi is that your interpretation? Wait till power changes hands and President Mahama & Ibrahim are also arrested.

  • Samabakoma 12 hours ago

    Kwaku Azarr, I expect you to tell Mahama to prosecute his former appointees who were involved in this bribery and stop winding about the bush.

  • Kay 11 hours ago

    Coward Kwaku Azar is afraid President Mahama & NDC will not welcome him like Kevin Taylor when he visits home. Kwaku Azar's face resembles Ken Ofori Atta who knows EOCO & BNI will mistaken him to be Ken and send him to jail.

  • Steve Kaye London 5 hours ago

    @ Samabakoma, John Odwanfunu Mahama cannot prosecute any of his former appointees, because he and his brother are neck deep in the bribery scandal.

  • Jona 12 hours ago

    Is that all Azaar can say on this dirty scandal which has brought international shame to Ghana?

    Where is the gap in our current laws which makes it impossible for John Mahama, EOCO, Special Prosecutor etc to prosecute the ...

    Empty talk, come and stay in Ghana to make Ghana corruption free. There is no sincere GHANAIAN anywhere. We pay lip service to the fight against corruption. Even our leaders take advantage of corruption to win elections.
