Kwasea, in your eight years in power, what did you do for the readers? Kajetia Market was partly burnt and Bawumia hurriedly went there and gave promises. Knowing full well that Ashantis are illiterates and mostly stupid, je didn't honour his promise and Ashanti as stupid people immediately forgot his promise. Now you are in opposition, you are talking nonsense. Now you have finished building your mansion, so you can talk loudly. The Ashanti traders are so stupid that they are happy the NPP stalwarts are trooping to the Blue Light area. After they have rejected the goodies from the Interior Minister, do they think the Mahama government will help them? Koduah and the NPP stalwarts have stolen so much money from the government coffers that they can easily reconstruct tue burnt place for you stupid people. The Kantamanto traders are building their market with their own money. The Kumasi traders must follow suit. Better still, the NPP must do it for you.

The asantes were only interested in inheriting the tall and handsome genes from their moshi fathers. Those bastards left behind the sensible genes. Npp was in power for eight good years and did absolutely nothing for you ugly apes and yet you continue to support them. A good asante is a dead a rotten one. These ugly short apes see tribalism as development.

If Asantes, especially the grassroots were thinkers, they would have rebelled against these NPP thieves. Most of them are idiots, even the Asantehene, are full of hatred for other tribes. Their level of tribalism has clouded their judgement, even that of Asantehene. Anything good done by any other tribe, to these bushmen and women does no deserve respect and honor. Asantehene is sitting on a stool under covenant with Satan. Asantehene is an idol worshipper ruling many idiots from the Asante region calling themselves Christians. Most Asantes who submit to this WIZARD called Asantehene, will die and go to hell with Asantehene, their chief wizard. Fools will always be deceived by thieves and Satan, as well as Asantehene, a thief who cannot come to Canada. All Asantes should thank Rawlings for saving Asantehene from jail in Canada, you idiots.

Akwasi Addai shut up. Woy3 odwain. He did a lot for the traders and Kumasi in general. My only problem with him is that he’s lazy when it comes to working for NPP. Kodua is totally inexperienced, daft, slow and has a lot to learn. Those who supported him, including the Jubilee House guys should be ashamed of themselves. The boy is not fit for purpose. Kodua must beg for resignation immediately. Foolish school boy with no sense nor initiative.

What did you do to them when you in government for eight years? More than 80% of Ghanaians protested against the introduction of E-Levy but you didn't listen to us, now you're here shedding crocodile tears.

How do you turn your back with a Market you have set fire into to get the Government of the day. Kumasi Market women and men there actually deserve that, so who cares.

Bloody IDIOT- For 8 YEARS Ashantis VOTEd SKIRT AND BLOUSE WITHOUT THINKING for the TINY Akyem Abuakwa TANI Akuffo Addo- but he rewarded the Ashanti Region with no project completed for the people who voted massively for him. Change the NPP delegates voting system for the NPP Leader to reflect the AVERAGE total number of VOTES RECEIVED FOR EACH REGION as a percentage of the TOTAL NPP VOTES RECEIVEd. Because how can you allocate the same delegates voting power for the Ashanti Region compared to the Eastern Region, Volta Region, Northern Ghana Regions?

Former Akufo-Addo appointees whose wealth have courted national conversations
Akufo-Addo with the three appointees from left Eugene Arhin, Sir John, and Kwabena Adu-Boahene
The reign of President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo may have long been over since January 7, 2025, but the very people who helped him during his 8 years in office may not all been enjoying their ‘retirements’ so well, or so quietly.

And this is for reasons aligned to promises and what appears to be a robust aim by the John Dramani Mahama government, which took over from the past one, to prosecute any forms of corruption that arose during the former administration.

These formed part of campaign promises by John Mahama and his National Democratic Congress (NDC), coming into the 2024 Election, and so far, they have been determined on achieving that.

Caught up in that, have been a number of appointees of Akufo-Addo who have ended up several investigations, or, in simple terms, whose names have been linked to controversial wealth that people believe may be, somehow, corruption related.

In this GhanaWeb article, let us take a look at some of the appointees under Akufo-Addo whose wealth came into question, generating national conversations.

In each of these cases, something happened that brought their cases into the public light, prompting national discussions and great interest.

Eugene Arhin

Eugene Arhin was the Director of Communications at the Presidency under Nana Akufo-Addo for the 8 years he was in office.

In 2021, a divorce case with his wife made it into the public, where his wife was demanding for certain reliefs in the separation process.

As part of the things she listed, she made mention of some of the properties owned by Eugene Arhin and these revelations, in the eyes of the public, generated a lot of conversations.

For many, did the Director of Communications at the Presidency, Eugene Arhin, amass all that in a space of four years, or during his time in public office?

Gloria Assan Arhin, his wife at the time, prayed the Accra High Court to grant her divorce request and also give her a number of properties, including a five-bedroom residential property (which was intended to be the matrimonial home of the parties) situated on a two-plot of land lying at East Legon in Accra; a four-storey building comprising 16 separate flats/apartments situated on a parcel of land at Bubiashie in Accra which land was acquired from a family friend of the petitioner.

She also asked for a storey building being constructed which comprised of 16 separate flats/apartments situated at Tuba-Weija in Accra.

These were but just three of the over twenty properties she sought after as part of the divorce.

Kwadwo Owusu Afriyie (Sir John)

Sir John, a former General Secretary of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), became the Chief Executive Officer of the Forestry Commission of Ghana until his death.

After his death, his will became public, generating another widespread conversation among Ghanaians. It involved a tall list of 75 properties, including houses, parcels of land, bank accounts, investments, businesses, guns and clothes.

His will also raised public concerns following the discovery that he owned lands at the Achimota Forest. This was also because President Akufo-Addo had, at the time, signed an Executive Instrument that said part of the Achimota Forest was no longer a forest reserve.

Critics said the move was a ploy to get the land into the hands of the ruling elite, an accusation the government vehemently denied.

Sir John’s ownership of parcels of lands at the Achimota Forest appeared to have heightened the deep-seated mistrust of the government and its actions.

Below are the properties as listed in the will of the late Sir John:

House on plot number GA54480 located in Ogbojo, East Legon, and acquired on February 12, 2018

House on plot number GA 55329 located at Oyarifa No. 2, acquired on May 11, 2018

Kwabena Adu-Boahene

The last person in this list of Akufo-Addo appointees whose wealth have courted public conversations is the former Director-General of the National Signals Bureau, Kwabena Adu-Boahene.

He and his wife, Angela Adjei-Boateng, were recently detained by the Attorney General’s office following his arrest at the Kotoka International Airport (KIA).

Following his detention, Attorney General Dr Dominic Akuritinga Ayine revealed at a press conference on Monday, March 24, 2025, a list of properties acquired by both suspects since 2018.

This, he said, was established through painstaking investigations by the EOCO and the AG’s office, indicating that the properties acquired were bought using embezzled state funds.

Below is a breakdown of the properties and their estimated values under the couple’s names below:

1. No. 2 stream part drive, Mayfair Estates, LA, Accra which is estimated at $1,000,000 (valued at GH¢15,000,000)

2. No. 6 Edith Avenue, Mayfair Estates, LA, Accra

3. No. 7 Edith Avenue, Mayfair Estates, LA, Accra estimated at a value of $200,000

4. No. 8 Edith Avenue, Mayfair Estates LA, Accra estimated at a value of $97,815

5. No. 9 Edith Avenue, Mayfair Estates LA, Accra also valued at $270,000

6. No. 10 Edith Avenue, Mayfair Estates LA, Accra at $150,000, Additionally, another initial cash deposit of $500,000 was made to purchase 5 houses.

7. Vertex properties at Oyarifa Gated Estate Development. This consists of 27 houses each valued at an estimated cost of $295,000 (GH¢127,000,000).

8. Two properties in London

The AG further disclosed that an amount of up to GH¢39 million was allegedly diverted and embezzled by the suspects from the agency.

"GH¢39,462,480 went into Adu-Boahene and his wife's pockets from one transaction," the Attorney General said.
