    The relevant topic in Ghana is the AKSA BRIBERY SCANDAL of 2015 in the 1st NDC Mahama government which has resurfaced in 2026 during the 2nd NDC Mahama government.

    I never knew John Mahama to be such an empty headed leader. If USA should not be held accountable then why waste everyone's time?

    If some of you politicians had not done corrupt activities like the Airbus scandal with Government Official 1 etc. you would not be so fixated on this demand from the western countries. After we had our freedom long ago.

    Mahama should stop provoking Black Americans. This is one of the most foolish statements I have ever heard from an African Head of State. I saw the interview on YouTube and I couldn't believe what he said.

  • Capt Adabuga 2 weeks ago

    Mahama doesn't know what the hell he is talking about. While they will not apologize for slavery they benefited from, they are just as culpable as the Europeans who transported the slaves. The US will never apologize to anyon ...
