    Rubbish politicians. They count on votes and afterwards turn their backs on them to wallow in poverty and hunger. This is the foolishness they use tax money on. Bribery and nothing else! Idiotic country!

    George Larbi thinks we are fools. Prof. is not wise. A Prof. should be able to guide people to convert knowledge into wisdom. But this Prof. hmmmmmmmm.

    Don't waste your time to guess who attempted to bribe him,its definitely John Dramani Mahama & NDC.Take a look at ppl who have jumped camp following,Ayariga,Akua Donkor,Bombarde etc all lazy ppl looking for cheap money.

  • Tom Cudjoe 7 years ago

    John, if you read the article properly, it says a politician from the opposition party, meaning the NPP. How can it be John Mahama?

  • NKETIAH DE PALM TAPPER . 7 years ago

    DID YOU REALLY READ THE ARTICLE WHERE DID IT STATE THAT THE POLITICIAN IS FROM THE OPPOSITION PARTY?.BAWUMIAH WAS RIGHT EVEN IF YOU GUYS READ,YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND WHAT YOU READ.

  • Asante 7 years ago

    On the other page it is clearly stated that it was a main opposition party giving the bribe. You only wish it were NDC. I hope you ,at least, will understand what you read or do you need Bawumia to explain it to you.
