So now every position in Ghana belongs to a northerner? If an Akan president had done this, you would have seen the uproar. We live to see.

The acting was a northerner and replaced by another northerner. Mahama is gradually filling all top positions in the country with northerners. This is dangerous.

Fellow Ghanaians,let us all be open minded not "party" minded. Let us have the future generation at heart, we might not benefit the outcome but our sincere and positive actions TODAY would leave some legecy; our children in future would be greatful to the good decision you and I make today. In realty, this government is not heading in a right direction, we have missed our exit therefore, we should humbly pay attention to the GPS while it is recaculting and make a detour before we run out of gas. The word to wise is enough. LET US BE GOOD CITIZENS, NOT GOOD PARTY"ZENS". God bless our motherland Ghana!!!

This foolish President will not stop to amaze me. He is too tribalistic and divisive. Look critically at his government, he is ONLY appointing incompetent northers into his failed and incompetent government. John Mahama is the most corrupt political animal in the history of the world.

Mahama is very tribalistic..... Mahama is divisive... Mahama can never unit Ghana.... Council of state should advise him.... His appointments are too much skewed.
