    The NDC is to blame for Woyomization. NDC should be punished for it and the ruling party can never escape the venom of this crime.

    The SC did not accuse Wayome of fraud and causing financial loss to the state but that all the actors in this macabre drama did not follow the proper procedures. If Wayome got paid through an order of a lower court of compete ...

    The behaviour of the Attorney-General in this Woyome case should not be surprising. It was this same A-G who handled this case on behalf of Woyome when she was then not an A-G, so how can she go against what she had said alre ...

    The country Ghana is dead and waiting for burial, the best carpenter should make a coffin for her to be buried by Pres. Mahama. Oh wait a minute, may be a visionary man may save her in 2016.

    Mr. Sarpong, the way I see it, Ghanaians are not going to get the NDC-Woyome loot of $31million dollars. The Mahama NDC gov't-Woyome orchestrated loot, has been set up in such a way that, instead of the NDC gov't and Woyome a ...

    We could as well forget about other cases involving money. eg. NSS scandal, Abuga Pele, Timbilla etc. Let all now concentrate how to make our own money from the state.

  • a.k, amsterdam 9 years ago

    Mahama must order the immediate release of all prisoners across the country because it is unacceptable to keep them in prison and left Wayome to go as a free man. Ghana is sickening seriously.
