    Sir, do you know how much damage Mr. Mahama and his brother Ibrahim would have done to Ghana's economy if they had SIX (6) years??
    Four (4) years is enough to stop the kind of wreck Mahama did.

    HAD IT BEEN THAT WE HAD SIX-YEAR TERM FOR OUR PRESIDENTS, MAHAMA AND HIS FAMILY WOULD HAVE KILLED US

  • Naiika 7 years ago

    Why not worth considering.

  • Kofi 7 years ago

    What is the magic about 6? Why not 10 years? We have 4. That is okay. Four years is even too long sometime.

  • Nana Brenyah 7 years ago

    Vanderpuije stole in the US and stole in Ghana. Please don't listen to him.Watch him with eagle eyes.

    Find out the duration of Prime Ministers in the U.K. and find out for how long the Chancellor of Germany could in power. Are we dreaming?

  • John Ghanaba 7 years ago

    NO! NO!NO! Imagine if we had to endure 6 solid years under Mahama or any exceptionally bad government; the problems they create and mess they leave behind will be even more difficult to fix.

    Oko spent 8 years as Accra Mayor and only succeeded in erecting giant bill boards bearing his name.
