Your father E. A. Mahama, a minister in Nkrumah's CPP, sent all his children to the North to have FREE EDUCATION fraudulently because he was living in Accra and had the means to pay. You had free education from Class ONE thru University level. You were on Government scholarship to Russia. You became Assembly man, an MP, a deputy Minister, a Minister, a Vice President, a President: all in that ascending order. You presided over the MOST CORRUPT GOVERNMENT in the history of Ghana. In fact, you were yourself deeply involved in all ACTS OF CORRUPTION from Aeroplanes buying to infinity. You stole so much so that a judge described your government as CREATE, LOOT and SHARE. John Mahama!! What at all do you want again in this world of Ghana?

Come on guys, effecting a change in leadership has nothing to do with age, so I don't see the wisdom in praising this guy yet - all because of his age? Let's just keep our fingers crossed and hope that Senegalese have done the right thing. If it was about age then we Ghanaians should start celebrating Bawumliar before we even go to the polls - because he is the youngest flag bearer since Rawlings. But majority of us know that he would be the worst disaster, even worse than Akufo Addo, should he win the next election.

Citizen8, I said majority of us, I didn't say everybody. So if you are not among us (the majority) just pipe down kuraa and find somewhere sit! If you think upon the incompetence and abysmal performance displayed by your NPP, especially the way Bawumliar handled the economy (especially the Cedi), Ghanaians will still queue and vote for them then you are very delusional.

Not true that Bawumia is the youngest flag bearer since Rawlings. In 2012, Mahama was flag bearer meanwhile he was below 60. Bawumia 61 years old.

I knew Senegal would come to this stage if anyone has closely been following their politics.There was a collision govt somewhere along the line weakening the two biggest parties.This guy's party took advantage to slip thru.Ghana first needs more than 2 parties to fill our Parliament then expect our election to go to the 2nd round to force both NDC & NPP to bargain with smaller parties to win an election.

The French do not have a first pass the post system like the UK system which we practise and guarantees a 2 Party system (Either Labour or Conservative) or in Ghana (NDC or NPP).

It is the sane system in France which allowed Macrons smaller new Party to vecome a President against the 2 major ones.

This can never happen in Ghana or UK. The most the third Party can do is to become a pressure force like the Liberal Democrats in the UK.

In Ghana it will either be the NDC or the NPP.

They know nothing about good governance apart from dancing to the tenets of the west and supporting all manner of stupid stuffs without caring about the future of our dear country. Senegal and other intelligent African countries are leading the way. This doesn't also mean we should vote for young liars who keep saying one thing and change their mouths within the next second.

The new Senegalese president is highy educated person, speaks English much much fluent than almost all Ghanaian parliamentarians, French, of course and German.

He won not because he has money. No he won because the people saw the power in him.

On the other hand, Chedar is only relying on his money. He thinks the presidency as a material thing he can use money to purchase. We dont even know which secondary school he attended.

Well, in Ghana's b3ntua, t-shirt and 3mo olonka politics, he will be able to use money to buy the presidency.

Is is not about age but great policies that can transform a nation. We have had a 29- year old JJ Rawlings in Ghana,far younger than this Senegalese guy but what did we see? Disaster, disaster and disaster. Look, under JJ we had the worst inflation rate in Ghana's history at 122%. The cedi depreciated over 100% within 3 months. There was total economic collapse. Biden is 81 but he has rescued the US and the world from economic woes. Age is just number ok. Policy and character are the major considerations.

Easier said than done. I wish you can talk to this guy after assuming office, and he will tell you that being a president is not an easy meal to eat. Do you understand what you are saying? Internal and external pressures are an insurmountable obstacle that thwarts what one can do.

Now, let me tell you a story. There was guy name Jesse Ventura, a wrestler in the US who campaigned from the outside and became a governor of Minesota one of the US states. He served for one term and swore never to vie for a political office ever. Asked why, his response was, "Pressure from within and outside which was uncontrollable".

You don't know what you are talking about being a leader of a nation.
