    Okay he was informed. Mahama has trapped Nana by getting him to be crossing swords with the US ambassador.

    Kofi I sympathize with you on that feeling. But don't worry. It is because we have a President who does not want to take responsibility for his poor decisions. Mahama wants Nana Addo to take the blame for an action he took wi ...

    Nana denied knowledge of the arrival of the two Gitmo prisoners that's why the embassy came out to tell the people of Ghana what happened. Nana Addo simply is a double tongued man. Period

    Nana Addo has always maintained that he was informed a day before it was announced that the terrorists had arrived in Ghana. Those who keep changing their stories are the US officials and Mahama. First he said he did so on Ch ...
