A group calling itself the Concerned Voters Movement have descended heavily on Former President Mahama for his decision to ‘hijack’ the house meant for the Vice Presidents of Ghana.
The Former President requested through his Former Chief of Staff Julius Debrah to keep the house he resides in as part of his ex-gratia benefits but this request has been rejected.
This request has been described the group as an attempt to set a very dangerous unattainable precedence and covetous legacy in our Governance System.
In a statement signed by the Founder and President of the Concerned Voters Movement, Razak Kojo Opoku, it emphatically detailed that the Former President could relocate to his father’s house just as other Presidents live in residents that are not provided for by the state.
“Ghana is not a family inheritance. If John Mahama is stranded he can relocate to his father's house, after all, incorruptible Akufo-Addo is still modestly operating from his father's house as the current President of Ghana.”
“President John Agyekum Kufuor ruled for eight solid years, humbly operating from his house and he has been in opposition for another eight solid years without a retirement house from the Nation. ”
