    Mahama as usual......deceiving Ghanaians because we have short memories. Fellow Ghanaians, be careful of deceptive and lies because we've heard and seen it before. Once bitten, twice shy.

    The last time I checked, the name Nana in politics is synonymous to criminality so just shut up. The God of President Mahama will keep disgracing you bunch of nation wreckers.

    Unprecedented economic recovery when his government owes cocoa farmers, teachers, nurses and other public servants. There is no evidence of any economic recovery under this government.
