Mahama stabbed Ghana in the back – Lord Hamah

Mr John Mahama (JM) stabbed Ghanaians in the back as President, a young outspoken member of the main opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC), Lord Hamah, has said.

“How could you come to terms with the fact that in 2016 JM stabbed the people of Ghana in the back by selling out ECG by a certificate of urgency in parliament ratifying the concession agreement with MIDA?” Mr Hamah, brother of former Deputy Communication Minister under Mr Mahama, Victoria Hamah said in a tirade on Facebook while commenting about the need to change the entire leadership of the party.

"The NDC record in government is a scandal. We need to accept that to move forward.

“For eight years, especially the last four years, we witnessed a kind of political incompetence unrivalled in Ghana's history.

“Related to this was the intoxication that took over the heads of youthful government appointees.

“Under JM there was no collective governance. The party became a slavish whore to state power. Key power brokers who were fattening on the foliage of state life did not even have any idea on the location of the national party office, not to talk of their constituency offices!

“The most interesting thing about the Kwesi Botchwey corpse-dressing committee is that it is only meant to rehabilitate a leadership that has failed Ghana.

“The claim that the present NDC leadership is social democratic is not scientific. It is based on self-proclaimed righteousness backed by a deadly cocktail of incoherent pseudo revolutionary principles.

“The entire leadership of the NDC needs to be wiped out. The December 2016 polls did part of the work in cleaning up the party, the rest should be done at an early Congress...." he wrote.
