AUTHOR: OSONO ------- I'm glad Mahama lost.Ghana would have collapsed if the ndc won.The special prosecutor must start working immediately. Get these stupid thieves in jail now.With the numerous problems confronting cocobod,it was absolutely inhumane for the then boss to earn that much. Ndc was led by robbers.

Author:- DELA. .....
Because you knew that Prez Mills was sick you could do anything you could and he wouldnt raise a finger. When he showed that he would let Amidu innvestigate you and get you out, you organized to get him killed. From then on you had field day and stole all our money with you family, friend and appointees. You and your brother bancrupted Merchant Bank and bought it. All contracts were inflated, you sold most low lying lands to your brother. You and Ibrahim Mahama have a steel factory at Tema, a cement factory also in Tema, most major contracts in the coountry had to come through your brother, you and your family and friends inflated all contract prices. Look at what you did through Ameri, Karpower, Ridge Hospital, Kumasi Airport runway refurbishment (USD29million), Tamale airport refurbishment (USD100 million), Ho Hospital (USD29milion), Nkrumah Circle (Euro 90million), Kasoa Interchange (USD172million), ALl SHS projects costing over USD1.8million each, Ghana Cocoa Board USD720million contract s awarder just so you, Opuni, your wife and some others could steal the money, Police Hospital, etc...... and several others. God will punish John Mahama and his colleague thieves with prison terms. THIEVES!!!

This is how Woyome got his loot and no one has been able to retrieve that money. Cancelling contracts arbitrarily
without any consultation is a recipe for disaster. Why not correct any anomalies in the contract and bring to book any fraudulent deals? Those inputs are going to be needed anyway. Well, may be through another fraudulent NPP contract? What a competition!!!

Together we can do it. Ghanaians must stop corruption and build our country Ghana. This is the right time. Nana Addo may God bless you and your ministers and l believe you will do according to your words. Happy birthday too.

As if he was going to redeem Ghana of its financial woes.

There will be no judgement debt because the "winning" company failed to meet the terms of the contract. In law, the contract was awarded on false prospectus and therefore fraudulent.

THE Special or Independent Prosecutors Office should be set up now or never, these thieves should never be allowed to walk on the streets of Accra or anywhere in Ghana freely with this magnitude of corruption allegations hanging on their necks like albatross for not even a day. White color crime is stalling the development of Africa with an unprecedented pace.If a young man who steals just a few items normally faces the mob justice of the angry citizens and lynched right away without the opportunity to defend himself in the court of law, but the system allows people who commit crimes of this magnitude to walk freely for even a day, how do you think other nations e.g. The western countries will perceive us. Again if the Akuffo Addo administration approaches any of our developmental partners for financial assistance without seeking to retrieve what we've already lost through this wicked former government operatives , do you think the Trump administration or the British government will take us serious as a nation?. Nana Addo PROBE THESE PEOPLE NOW.

They crucified Jesus Christ because they phantom to Moses but Jesus said the Moses you you said was your messiah you don't listen to his law:Jesus then said those who said the woman has fornicated and therefore she needed to stoned to death and those of you who have not commuted a sin first throw stones. None one did.That is how human nature behaves;The will first defray and then divour.Hacknan may behave as clean cut guy but trust me.They will proposes stories to terminate the contract then find and new contract so they can get their share of it.Human nature

One thing about the Blackman is that we don't investigate,you must find the company that was awarded the construct,Stephen Opuni is not dead,we must get the details from him,after all he signed the contract.Every wrongdoing must be investigated,ll the allegations we heard that annoid Ghanaians to vote against the NDC should be investigated and punished.This ugly man Opuni receiving Gh75,000,00 a month is he a footballer?.Somebody should tell former president Kufour that if he has nothing to say,he should teach his grandchildren 123 or ABCD,is he saying Ghana should've paid him based on his performance or the grant and loans he contracted on behalf of Ghana?i don't get his arguments atall,is he justifying that dubious salary?i now believe the EO group is for him,he just used some people to front for him.Mr Rawlings should fire him,anytime Mr Rawlings leave him to rest,he stirs controversy.
