MAHAMA IS BARAWO BANZA
Mahama is so heartless, wicked and corrupt that he wouldn’t blink stealing from a helpless orphan. Please read the following:
Ghana’s President Hurls Insults At Obasanjo At African Forum In London - bloomberg
There was near pandemonium and confusion at the Annual Global African Investment Forum held in Westminster, Central London after a heated exchange between Ghana’s President John Mahama and former Nigerian President Olusegun Obasanjo degenerated into open insults.This was due to General Obasanjo openly accusing the Ghanaian president and his government of blackmailing and collecting bribes from Nigerian businessmen in Ghana, buying numerous properties in Nigeria and South Africa and financially contributing 12 million dollars to Goodluck Jonathan’s campaign last year. This infuriated President Mahama who lost his temper and pointing his finger, called General Obasanjo an ” idiot” and a “silly buffoon”.It took other ministers present as well as Ugandan President Yoweri Museveni to calm tempers and usher President Mahama to a nearby room. The forum, which takes place from 1st to 3rd December is attended by African Heads of States, Ministers, Private equity firms and investors to discuss opportunities for investment and development in African Economies.

Culled from Bloomberg.

So far the NPP has been busy with "what went wrong"?. We already know that. That is why we voted for you. ACT NOW and stop the diversionary tactics.

I though this was long time ago even before the election. I listened to Dr.several times and he hammered on this. What is left is the solution or at least strategies to tackle it.
Reminding us of this three months after election is a bit of worry and the beginning of hope loss for some of us.

There's no diversionary tactics about this. We already what went wrong but not the fine details. When a government overspends it's approved budget, particularly by that huge margin it has implications for the economy. And you can't ignore this fact.

Ato Forson, like all these dumb young NDC operatives is full of it. Whether if only GHS43 billion was disbursed, the Mahama government ended up spending GHS51 million, leaving the incoming government IOU chits of GHS8 billion to settle. We've got to sanction these young "fools" who think use of convoluted language and lies creates what Donald Trump's people can "Alternative Facts".

Bagbin is right, listen to your elder Mr Forson and stop displaying your propensity to lie.

Ato Forson should reconcile his response to what the second deputy speaker is saying and stop throwing dust into the eyes of Ghanaians,Alban Bagbin has just advised him on the subject matter.Johm Mahama it's clear has no idea how government is run,he only became president by default and went ahead to use the system with the help of institutions like EC to rig and win 2012 elections,he then went on to reward loyalists with appointments by putting square pegs in round holes to rule us for 4 years.Governace of a nation is not about how tall you re or gentle one can be but how competent and educated you re,the former president throughout his life has not set up any successful business to be entrusted the destiny of Ghanaians in his hands,building schools,roads and hospitals does not make one competent but the prudent running of the economy.

Both padt presidents Kuffour and Mahama administrations did the same last minute contract awards.
NPP MPs should therefore shut up on this issue.
