Every president has the right to select the persons he is comfortable working with. He has been declared the president and what we only wish him is success.He is a northner and he is comfortable working with the people he feels at home with. During his campaign, he did not promise any tribe or region a cabinet seat so leave him alone.

Most of these business executives are Akans,you would hardly find an Ewe.When our parents are investing their resources in order to employ others you would not hear any complain but the moment we join politics they say we're thieves.NDC elders would always consume whatever they make in politics by building big houses that they don't need and luxury cars,they won't learn anything from NPP members no wonder they become paupers when they are out of power.

You kill some ghanaians and punish them of the crime which people like this NDC is doing but they are free. Prez, MAHAMA is the head of this crime, but he is free
