Foreign companies have been granted an interlocutory injunction to try and reverse the giveaway of the oil block at Tano. The whole world will see how our criminal upper class are stealing from the nation.

He must have promised some free oil.
EU lobbied for him so he can sign the EPA
Parliament has also gone ahead to ratify 2 petroleum agreements with one taking less than 6 hours all on the blind side of the citizenry. There's no transparency, no openness, in these deals, with Ghana's oil and gas resource ...

You don't sound like you are well educated so if Mahama has good programs, why are you in Lagos selling "puff puff" instead of enjoying Mahamah's good programs in Ghana?
I hope this is not true but if it is indeed true then I am sorry to say we are doomed as a country. This cannot go on till 2016 and it must stop now. Awarding such contracts without parliamentary consent is a no no. President ...
