some people from the ndc when they hear the truth about their genocide and racist tribalism go into a stupefied frenzy foaming at the mouth thinking that will make their lies and propaganda true . The fact remain the Akans are being systematically denied their rights in their own land , being robbed in broad daylight by this mafia stealing ndc . they even tried to corrupt our morals by forcing down our throats so called sodomy and homosexuality by all surveys prove 98% of the people are firm and steadfastly against such perverse corrupt behavior . the days of the ndc are over but they dont see it , they will not get even 5% of the vote as its now clear to all what their true agenda has always been . The anti Akan mission has failed and we stand stronger than ever before .yes they say anyone who speaks up is illiterate but i say we have gone to the school of hard knocks and graduated from the university of bullshit , right now i am writing my doctorate thesis on the correlation of the female ass shape and the frustration of the people . we see the diverse beauty and fine proportional shape of the Akan woman and compare it to the ugly stinking disproportion of the ayigbe , ga , and pepeni females . We understand the Europeans whose women have bodies with no shape like teenage boys so recognize their inability to differentiate between the sexes and insist that sodomy or gay is right . but for them to come again and misbehave with their cheating bullying and mobbing mentality today is too much, look at even their embassies , almost all of them have walls higher than Jericho or are designed like military bases to keep our people out , i wonder why they even come , we should encourage them to close this offices of oppression and leave , their people are welcome to come but these politicians and their servants are not . in europe towns with less than 100,000 population have consulates opened but here they all herd up in Accra and talk shit with this EPA, what a nerve , we should cut off their balls and feed it to them . in the meantime after blaming some poor Akan man for the last Turkey/ Iran gold scandal we see now who the real culprits are . Pepeni kwasea himself is putting our gold there as he knows for sure the revolution is coming and he plans to run off to his Islamic criminal brothers .Yes we shall establish a new state based on freedom , equality and justice for all .This idea of reconciliation has denied true justice and all countries that went down that path have only regretted . The Jews didnt accept reconciliation rather up to today hunt down the Nazi criminals , we should deal with jj fake revolutionaries the same way and arrest all of them as a lesson to future generations that crime does not pay no matter the ideology its wrapped in . we see today big men from the ndc trying to cut deals with the npp in secret but we shall never forgive them and make sure they feel the full force of Akan law . their days are numbered , we have defeated them in their propaganda war and now we shall dismantle all their evil

IS THIS THE GHANA K4 HANDED OVER TO NDC GREEDY CORRUPT BASTARDS??? ---------------WHO CAN PROVE KWASI ADADE WRONG? I AM SAYING, THAT, GHANAIANS VOTED FOOLISHLY!!-- IS THIS NDC'S BETTER GHANA? THEN WHAT WILL THEIR BITTER GHANA BE?--- IF THIS IS NDC'S PRAISE THE LORD, THEN, WHAT WILL THEIR CRUCIFY HIM BE?--- GHANA'S PROBLEM, TODAY, IS NOTHING BUT THE RESULT OF CRIMINAL NDC'S ALLIANCE TO CREATE, LOOT AND SHARE POLICY***---------------*** "IT IS ONLY A FOOL, WHO ALLOWS HIS TESTICLES TO BE STEPPED ON, TWICE"-------GO OUT THERE AND RECEIVE YOUR REWARD, ALL GHANAIANS. GO AND PAY THE PRICE FOR YOUR FOOLISHNESS. YOU DON'T GIVE A SECOND MANDATE TO AN INCOMPETENT AND CORRUPT GOVERNMENT, NO!! NOT AT ALL, THAT IS ABOMINATION IN DEMOCRACY, VERY SUICIDAL. HAD NDC MANAGED THE ECONOMY WELL, THESE ECONOMIC PROBLEMS WOULDN'T HAVE BEEN THE SITUATION. NDC HAS PRESIDED OVER THE BIGGEST RESOURCES GHANA HAS EVER HAD. THEY HAVE ALSO CONTRACTED MORE LOANS THAN ANY OTHER GOVERNMENT IN OUR HISTORY, BUT THEY HAVE NOTHING TO SHOW FOR THIS. GHANAIANS SHOULD HAVE ENJOYED SOME ECONOMIC PROGRESS AT THIS TIME IN OUR HISTORY. THE ECONOMY IS COLLAPSING BECAUSE THE GOVERNMENT IS SO CORRUPT. TO RESCUE THE SITUATION, THE POOR IS NOW BEING FORCED TO PAY. THIS IS INJUSTICE. THIS IS NOT THE GHANA KUFFOUR HANDED OVER TO NDC, HE EVEN ADDED FRESH CRUDE OIL WELLS. NPP TRANFORMED GHANA TO A MIDDLE INCOME ECONOMY WITH LIMITED RESOURCES BUT GOOD POLICIES. NDC IS WOEFULLY REVERSING THESE NPP ACHIEVEMENTS. GHANA'S CURRENT SITUATION IS VERY DISTURBING. WHEN THE HISTORY IS TOLD, IT WILL BE SAID THAT GHANAIANS WERE OFFERED FREE SECONDARY EDUCATION, IMPROVED UNIVERSAL HEALTH CARE, SOCIAL HOUSING FOR THE POOR AND AN EGALITARIAN SOCIETY BUT 50% SAID NO THANK YOU. THEY PREFERRED ECONOMIC "WOYOMISATION" , PHANTOM DEVELOPMENT PROJECTS, PHILANDERERS FOR LEADERS, MACHIAVELLIAN DISRESPECTFUL CORRUPT LOUTS AND A VISIONLESS EVIL GOVERNMENT. I AM SO PROUD I VOTED FOR NANA AKUFFO ADDO.

First, this group as we all know as coming from the Opposition Npp should prove that the air plane actually belongs to the President's Brother.

And if truly the presidents brother own that plane and has been used to carry Ghanaian business men on a trip to Iran, wherein lines the collusion, conflict of interest?

This is only an attempt by the aggrieved Opposition in flinging mud at the person of the president and for sure, they will fail and that failure will affect their chances of 2016 election as usual.

Kwasiaba, Namoale Amasa! What do you gain from this your tribal hate? Akan is an akan you can't do foko about it so what's your problem? I'm proud to be an akan and I love to be an akan and I will be an akan untill thy kingdom come what's your problem? Did I tell you to be where you are? If you've lost your self esteem do you blame akans? Then you will continue to play the infidel part but who cares?mind your business, do you people think every one from the north is interested in your tribal madness? They are ghanaians who think they are not in competition with anyone like you the other minority in the south and they don't want to be part of that your hate, enviness and jealousy they view akans as hard working and industrious people who are successful.If John Mahama had associated himself with the akans he wouldn't had gone through all these difficulties because governance is like running an enterprise and God has giving that gift to akans.You can take it or argue, its a fact you can't take that away.FIX IT if you have that gift.

Why is it always a bad news involving the President and his half Ewe younger dubious character brother, Ibrahim Mahama?

Is the President aware and seriously worried about his tarnishing name as result of his materially greedy brother, Ibrahim Mahama who uses using him as his political cover rubbing the country with both arms and with impunity?

The continues silence of the President on the naughtiness and notorious lawless behaving of his brother who is conspicuously connected to multi-corruption and "bank raiding" is a clear indication that the President is well connected with Ibrahim Mahama's embarrassing crime openly being committed against the country with pride and with arrogance in a conflict of interest.

I will not be surprise if Mahama is in the near future made to face the laws of the land for the unchecked stinky Ibrahim Mahama's deals and the SADA, GYEEDA, Woyome, Brazilian military jets saga, Merchant Bank, and all the doubtful settlement debt payments paid right under his nozzles and sending the country Bankrupt with unplanned budget deficits.

Mahama is become a liability and not fit for purpose as President of this noble country, Ghana.

Seriously, this is an indictment, one of greed, corruption and utter bad leadership. Ghanaians are being fleeced left and right. What has E&P - "mining company" got to do with transporting Ghanaian Government officials, in their official assignment. For one, as a registered US commercial plane, this contravenes the Foreign Corrupt Practices of the USA's laws, that stipulates and required a comprehensive transparency in any commercial engagements between Foreign Government officials and business entities.
These less than flattering reports of corruption and clandestine dealings in the seat of government makes a whole mockery of the president's Easter Message. Now it should be Do as I do, Free for all. Not as I say.!!!!. That's the new Ghana Development Agenda, for this current leadership.

Buffeted by questions about why an American plane was in Tehran, Iran’s Foreign Ministry said on Friday that the plane had been used to transport top Ghanaian officials as part of a broader push to expand cooperation between the two countries.

The visit comes as Iran seeks to cultivate close relations with West African countries including Ghana, which also enjoys warm relations with the United States. In what seemed like an indirect reference to the chilly relationship between the United States and Iran, Marziyeh Afkham, the Foreign Ministry spokeswoman who announced the purpose of the visit in a statement, emphasized that the passengers and crew “were all non-American.”

Still, the American-flagged plane, a Bombardier jetliner powered by two General Electric engines, was an extraordinary sight in Iran and illustrated how aircraft operators can obscure themselves under United States rules that some American law enforcement officials find troubling. Iran has been so ostracized by the West over the years, particularly by the United States, that typically permission is required from officials in Washington for such a plane to fly there.

A confidential document reviewed by The New York Times showed that the plane is held in a trust by the Bank of Utah on behalf of the mining company, Engineers and Planners, which is based in Accra, the Ghanaian capital. As the beneficiary of the trust, the company operates the plane. The company’s chief executive is Ibrahim Mahama, a brother of President John Dramani Mahama.

The plane departed Iran on Thursday, Ms. Afkham said, after a series of meetings between the Ghanaian delegation and top Iranian officials.

Reached by telephone Friday night, Ibrahim Mahama said, “Let me get some details and I will call you back.”

The plane has a history of intercontinental travel, according to images posted on the Internet by amateur photographers who make a sport of snapping airport takeoffs and landings to chronicle flight itineraries. Six months before the plane was spotted on Tuesday parked at the V.I.P. section of Mehrabad Airport in Tehran, it was seen leaving a London-area airport bound for Accra. The plane can be easily identified by the call letters on its tail engines, N604EP.

While the Ghanaian company is not subject to the patchwork of sanction rules constricting trade between Iran and the United States, the Utah bank, based in Ogden, is bound by sanctions.

To travel to Iran, the aircraft would typically need a license from the Treasury Department’s Office of Foreign Assets Control, the primary enforcer of American sanctions against Iran. With its American engines, the plane would also typically have to obtain a separate license from the Commerce Department.

The Office of Foreign Assets Control did not issue a license for the plane’s flight to Iran, according to two people briefed on the matter, raising questions about whether its flight had flouted American law. Treasury officials declined to comment.

Questions about whether a license was even required are compounded by federal aviation regulations that can shroud the identity of a plane’s operators. In the case of this plane, the information held in a vast database maintained by the Federal Aviation Administration was limited. The trustee — in this instance, the Bank of Utah — was the sole entity recorded as owner.

The bank, though, was acting as a trustee on behalf of the Ghanaian company, according to a copy of the trust agreement, signed on Sept. 11, 2013. Through the complicated legal pact, the title to the aircraft is held by the Bank of Utah, an arrangement that enables foreign corporations, dignitaries and others to invest in and lease planes that fly freely within the United States, and throughout the world. To operate the plane, the Ghanaian company leases it.

Iran has made no secret of its desire to strengthen relations in Africa. Last April, President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad visited three West African countries — Niger, a leading producer of uranium, Benin and Ghana. The trip to Niger in particular raised speculation that Mr. Ahmadinejad was looking for sources of uranium for Iran’s disputed nuclear program, a major reason for the regimen of Western sanctions imposed on the country.

In February, Iran invited Ghana’s president to visit Tehran for what local news reports called discussions of “issues of mutual interests.”

In Ghana, the aircraft spotted in Tehran this week became the object of wide speculation after local media reports tying the plane to President Mahama. In June 2012, the mining company, which contracts with mines in northern Liberia and Congo, issued a news release denying reports that the president, who was technically still vice president at the time, had acquired the plane.

But in the denial, the company provided a window into how the plane is used, “The company has entered into an agreement with an American company to provide it with air services using a Challenger 600 aircraft.” The pact, the company said, enables “mining companies, oil service companies and other corporate institutions” to rent the plane.

None of these other companies, the actual entities flying the plane, appear on the trust document.

Such opacity troubles some American law enforcement officials, according to several people with direct knowledge of the matter. The fear, these people say, is that the trust arrangements could enable questionable actors to quietly lease private planes. While the F.A.A. says it knows the actual owners of every aircraft, the trust structure can enable a tenuous chain, with one operator leasing the plane to another company, and another, with the details far from public view.

Former federal officials, who spoke on the condition of anonymity, said they believed that the plane has been used to transport President Mahama before. They based that conjecture partly on the plane’s known itineraries from photos posted online.

One image captured the plane flying to the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland, where President Mahama spoke in September. The Ghanaian president was also in London last October when the aircraft was spotted leaving there for Accra.

The aircraft has changed hands several times, according to contracts reviewed by The Times. They provide a family tree of sorts, showing the plane was made by the Canadian company, Bombardier, in 2000. From there, it was leased to a German travel company, and later by a shipping company executive.

The plane landed in Iran on a specific day and date. From the Iranians, it was a high powered gov't delegation that was in the country as part of a broader push to expand cooperation between Ghana and Iran.
What prevents Nii and David from asking for the names or itinerary or the list of the Ghanaian delegation to ascertain the veracity of E&P's statement that it was a business delegation instead? If it was an official gov't delegation, then as Ghanaian taxpayers, we have an obligation and a duty to know the identity of the delegation since their trip was on behalf of the citizenry.
That should put matters to rest and also make a case for holding the Mahama led NDC gov't accountable, to address the issues of conflict of interest which flies absolutely in the face of good governance and unjust enrichment of the person of the President's brother. Ghana is demanding the list of the delegation that was on the flight to Iran as matter of transparency and good governance.

What is apparent is this:

Ibrahim Mahama's company E & P has leased the plane from the Utah company, as reported by NY Times and Iranian news sites.

According to CNN the plane was in Davos, Switzerland, at the time when Mahama was attending the World Economic Forum; and later London and other capitals.

Implicit in this web is that Ghana is being fleeced. The government of Ghana, is in turn leasing the plane from Ibrahim Mahama at exorbitant rates.

Why is it that anytime NDC government is found in shady deals the NDC propaganda machine is set in motion to turn the whole issue into tribal politics. They find it easy to tag NPP with all sorts of names but when it come s to NDC then it is turned into something else. When Koffour's son bought a hotel it was blamed on NPP, when Amoateng was caught with cocaine it was NPP and never the individual as NDC appendages wants us to believe. Ghanaians will never be "fools" forever as NDC always wish. Their day of reckoning will surely come.

And Akuffo is so damned "crazy" about getting the presidency in 2016--he doesn't have to stomach to lead an NPP challenge to Mahama.

So Mahama has a free reign to steal as much as he can as long as he gives up power in 2016 for another set of thieves. Ghanaians should wake up.

From one xxx-gate to the other, John Mahama is an embarrassment to this glorious nation of Ghana. How much of the taxpayers' money does he want to dole out to his family before he gets satisfied? John Mahama sold Merchant Bank and wrote of his brother's debt to the bank. Now he is the official carrier of government officials on official trips. How much did that trip cost the taxpayer and who were on that delegation. And we now know the president's brother has an office at the Flagstaff House; how much does he pay in rent and for security?

I am getting very worried.
Read this and ask: Can we trust President Mahama anymore? I feel betrayed even though not personally. I had some trust for the man,, but too many issues and contradictions. His credibility is shot!
Wasn’t President Mahama reported at Church yesterday with the former CEO of SADA, a man who had no shame in claiming that he was asked to plant trees and create jobs, and not specifically to water the trees. He did not even pay the workers,, and over $30 million gone!!

Folks, we all have to make a living somehow. It is an honor to be appointed Vice President. Nobody would refuse. However, the President did not have to take this job if he felt he was not up to the job.
The job of President is not like any other job where you just show up and get paid. No!! One has to have a strong VISION and then figures out how to SOLVE PROBLMES associated with the nation and some predictable and some simply unpredictable. To accomplish these one has to PLAN and MANAGE and I don’t see any of that. In addition to that a President, if he is leave any mark, has to inspire and motivate others to achieve sometimes beyond what they could do on their own.

Since taking office I cannot put my hands on any single item John Mahama accomplished. None! If somebody can refresh my memory I will appreciate it.
Something is seriously wrong with this President,, and I have to say my trust in him is seriously affected.
