It's a matter of principles.
Comments such as this by Hannah Tetteh shows you just how far removed from reality some of these so-called political leaders are.
The issue at hand is not about the size of the home. It's about the way and manner in which ...

I just can't believe how they think, sometimes. it's a shame!
No You are the loony cus its a loony who sees a loony
This bunch of losers have been in power for 8 years?! They cannot even understand the logic behind this whole issue of Mahama have to vacate the premises. What nonsense is this? CORRUPT PEOPLE MAKE EASY MATTERS TOO DIFFICULT.
At campaign time, they talk as lovers of the nation but when they come to power, they loot the nation's coffers and when they are pushed to opposition, they cry for property.
YOU NDC FOLKS DO NOT GET IT. THAT IS BESIDE THE POINT OF THIS HOUSE BIGGER THAN THE OTHER. IT IS THE LAW AND MAHAMA OF ALL PEOPLE AND YOU SHOULD KNOW THAT. THAT IS THE MORE REASON WHY YOU FOLKS LOST THE ELECTION. LACK OF RESP ...

Is Mahama security more important than President Kufuor? The same Mahama and Ndc refused to give to President Kufuor what was due to him.
Mahama should move back to his house at East Legon or he will be evicted.
What about the property which was purposely built for the ex president kufour, at the East legon enclavment which he refused to accept it? You are always painting people void, why can't you speak the truth for once ?
@ Dessie cant those same state houses house Mahama?Bawumiahs security not important,a sitting vice president?onlIrrational minds think this myopic
The Ex and the current, who's security is more important.
It is a question of principle. If the const has allocated a place for the vice president, that is where he should lodge. The fact that JDM wants that property is neither here nor there.
This simply shows how the Pple in NDC ...

That is not the issue. Mahama should just leave. How can he be so indisciplined.

What has Mahama hidden at the site? Inquiring minds want to know.
Very disgraceful! No wonder you and NDC lost big. NDC is a looting political party.
Hannah tetteh you can decide for intelligent Ghanaians if you have something to say tell your incompetent mahama to move out from that house period.
Greedy Bastards!!!!! We do not care. JM will never on earth be given that house. If NPP dares we will Marshall forces and ensure their defeat in 2020.

But why mahama absolutely want That building. What are the mysteries surrounding that house cos after becoming president he still kept it. Could that be the place he buried Prof. Mills.
Whatever! We want the state bungalow even if Australia or Jamaica hse is bigger than the sea.
If I recall right Australia House was built to accommodate guests of the state.

That means is a planned agenda by Mahama nd his government not to leave the house for another person it's a shame to you greedy wicked person
The Australian/Australia house is meant for the governor of bank of Ghana not for Vice presidents.
Very sad that partisan politics can cloud the objectivity of a learned woman who should know better. This has nothing to do with the size of the building but all about enforcing the rule of law.
Was it wise to show the world the Australia house? Does this woman understand what security means?
Hannah Tetteh , it is about a rule of law. Mahama is not above the law. Mahama himself gave a press conference enforcing the Presidential Transition Act, so what is his problem? Hannah you know the law, don't talk like a simp ...
