The truth must be told, anokware John Mahama cannot do the job.
This guy came to the job offering no real vision for the nation, instead he only served up absolute nonsense - Ede be keke - which for some, loosely translates into just existing at the wheels, not knowing which direction to go. To add insult to injury, he is telling us that, like a car, he is only in the first gear in a four-year term, so we can expect to see a fourth gear only in the fourth year. To hear that allegory from a guy and a president who had been a vice-president for the previous four years, and claims that because of the ill-health of Atta Mess, he John Mahama was really the one in charge behind the scenes, then we have reasons to conclude nothing good or extraordinary can be expected that is different from what we have seen from the last four years. The value is going to be the same, and corruption is going to consume all of us under Mahama. Our people tell us, 'Edwa beso'a efiri anopa', to wit, one can gauge the prospects of a good market day from the signs the morning activities project. Right now the country is sinking fast from all reliable indicators. In the last four years, the cedi has depreciated a whole 100 percent under Mahama and Atta Mess. What other assurances are we waiting for? To be hit on the head with bricks?
Look, John Mahama is not cut for prime time, he does not know how, and all his protestations are excuses to cover incompetence and corruption in high places, of which him and his party are direct beneficiaries. What the fuck is Ede be keke? Nonsense!

if you have the country at heart, build sound economic foundations!!!
This is very annoying!! It is this same stupid Ghanaina mind set of begging and borrowing that could make a whole president think that 10 percent slash of his pay check (remember he pays bo taxes) means he is sacrificing for the nation. What sort of nonsense is that? When some CEOs are taking $1 pay salaries you call this a having the nation at heart. How much of the nations money is lost through corrupt practises?? if you can get ride of corruption in the nation, set the nation of a great economic and development path while taking a 20 percent RAISE in salary, we will say you have the nation at heart. SHORT SIGHTED PRESIDENCY!! Ah this is sooooo annoying!!

Mahama should think of how he can collect our $52 million dollars given to Woyome by NDC Administration, $80
million dollars GYEEDA thievery, $47
million dollars given to Isofotone,
Thousands of V8 cars bought from the State Funds and distributed to chiefs
and girls in our country influencing
them to vote for Mahama and his NDC crooks expose and press legal proceedings against all the NDC thieves, Mahama should not boast out for his peanut 10% cut.
NDC Ministers should pay for their own petrol, buy their own Cars from their own pocket, pay for their own
electricity and water usages, this is what we want to see, that is what happens in any of the civilized country, Mahama should stop shouting
and do the right thing. SWINE him.

You say this is a joke? The president just said the should do same and stop the cretics if the have the country at heart. Some people can not even give their 1% of their salary to the needy but they are the people who go on radios shouting. At least, the president has shown some commitement. At times we have to give praised when its due and also condemn when it due, but creticizing everything the president does is unfaire.

Its a shame executives of NDC govt are over paid 800,000 GHc a year. NDC govt in pwer for six years and over paid all these years, what a day robbers (thiefs)
They have to pay back all the money they were paid for all those years. We pay them thinking that was the amount every executive was suppose to have to do their duties no knowing it was too much. Thiefs why didnt they tell us it was 10% over every months. We pay them to do a job like any other worker, not know they were stealing and can do whether 10% of there salaries.
Pay reduction from all the executives for been over paid. After the 10% reduction the can give what ever tjey want to charity.
Our ministry of health is not a Charity and we dont expect or need money from any thiefs who knowing steal 800,000 GHc a month from the people of ghana.
20% of every executive should be paid back our money since NDC and Mills administration.
Its now ghanaians will know how much money is wasted on these suppose executives. 800,000 GHc, no wonder our hospitals are so much in a mess. I dont think John Mahama ever have a good sleep, things that comes from he mouth are day dreams.
Talk before you think govt, not good for anything is not thought thru before opening mouths.

Mahama, I am not sure how much your salary is but no matter how much it is, 10% of it is nothing to build the infrastructures that you are talking about. Even with that of yours and your ministers and deputy ministers, we are told it is a mere 700,000 Ghana cedis. With always inflating the cost of every project undertaken by NDC since it came to power, how many of these infrastructures can this amount build? I wonder whether it could build even one. Stop throwing dust into our eyes because strictly speaking you do not need pay because you get everything for free -cars, petrol, homes, you do not pay for electricity, water, food, clothing, etc. In cities like New York, the Mayor of the city, Mayor Bloomberg has forfeited his salary. He goes to work in a subway (train), pays for utility bills, etc. If you are able to do that together with your appointees, then Ghanaians will take you a little serious, not this meager salary cut. Do not throw dust into our eyes.

Mr Mahama the 10% pay cut from you and your executives is a good thing but why will you cut your pay and not collect what has been stolen from you? I know it is a long time you did some mathematics so let me take you through some simple maths. Your 10% pay cut will bring Ghana 800,000cedis a month. Multiplied by 12 Ghana will have 9,600,000 a year. If you multiply this amount by 3(the number of years left for you to rule Ghana), you have 28,800,000Gh cedis. Mr president, Woyomme owes you 51million cedis, if not more, don't you think it will a wise thing to collect the huge sum of money Woyomme owes you than to cut your pay? You are trying to play it smart but Ghanaians are not fools. Yes you can fool your NDC illiterates but not everybody.

Can a sensible Head of State come with this nonsense? Absolutely not! First and foremost by the 1992 Constitution which was drawn by people like Asiedu-Nketia and others, the President's salary and allowances are non taxable which thy holiest (JJ) been the first receipient signed it into law. You see who that tin god (JJ)is?
For this fool Mahama to throw his weight and challenging the ordinary citizens whose taxes helped to pay his salary and allowances to emulate his stupid example is completely beyond words to comment on. Boasting on this 10% cut is complete shame and out of touch to the sufferers. How can he compare himself to Uruguay President Jose Mujica who donates 80% of his $15,000.00 salary to charity and lives in his wife's house where he commutes from daily to his office in his 1987 VW Beetle? This is what we call leading by example and not this stupid 10% cut whereby you raised your salary in the early part of the year by a percentage which is higher than this meager 10% cut.
When are these people going to reason before they talk? My guess may be as yours. E&OE.

Hello mahama,
What do you take Ghanaian workers and its people for? Fools,dummies and stupid alright that's why you stole their votes and believe they voted for you. Give them free house, free car with free gas, all the benefits you and your vice, ministers and deputies enjoy only for a year and I swear they will contribute 20% and not just 10% of their salary.
