Clueless Dramani Mahama is an abomination. He made most Ghanaian toiled yet suffered all kinds of difficulties but was ignorant about it. He kept telling us that conditions had improved, as if he was living on another planet. Let him keep quiet and enjoy his money and things stolen from the state. The more he talks the more he reminds us of.his incompetence. We shall continue to curse him forever.

Your Mahama sought to destroy every business in Kumasi. In his quest to hang on to power, he made a strategic move that, by touching Kumasi he would be able to dismantle NPP's sources of campaign financing.Otherwise which rational thinking leader will seek to build four markets at the same time without giving the affected traders an alternative market or place to sell their wares. By his wicked means to siphon kick-backs through contracts sole sourcing he went to tackle all four markets in the central district of Kumasi namely, the Kajetia station market, the Central Market, New Tafo(Krofrom )Market and the Asoase Markets simultaneously and with so much money allotted for these projects for many years, only one project ie. even the smallest of them as far as I know was completed when l went to do my personal reconnaissance . Only the Asoase market was completed with such an inflated price tag when l went on my fact finding mission in October 2016. With all these nuisance the NDC were on media bragging that these projects were totally ready for business. Bunch of Crooks and nation wreckers who only came to steal through propaganda and subtlety.How do you expect the Ashantis to root for you if you do this to them and everybody in Kumasi was crying about the unprecedented hardships this guy Mahama has brought on them when l visited last summer. Why?

I was shocked when it became apparent that the security company that's in control of the Kotoka International Airport is owned and managed by the NDC's notorious Oti Bless, how can our government make this mistake ? The airport should've been the first to effect the change of government and put the loyalists of the new administration in charge. Beware of these NDC saboteurs . Please Mr President these NDC operatives have no love for this nation, they will choose politics over quality of life, they will love to sabotage you and loose their contracts. Remember what Ayariga and his cronies did at the Parliamentary appointment committee. These people are leeches and you can't possibly "appease" them so Nana Addo please I know that you want to give everybody an opportunity to serve our nation. I know that cronyism is not part of you, but this will be considered a gross negligence on the part of your administration if these loose cannons are allowed to remain place. Remember the Naayele cocaine saga, Let Kan Dapaah also get this important message.

Stop talking and emulate your predecessor like President Kufuor and strategies for your chance in the 2020 elections. If you don't take care, your own men would disgrace you, bet on me. Don't you know Ghanaians? Nobody is thinking about you nowadays, because of the collapsed economy being managed by your administration.

But why are those who have their heads screwed on right, in that NDC allowing this embarrassment in that their party? What kind of embarrassment is this? So the NDC party does not have any shame at all? What at all is this? C'mon, the NDC must show some level of seriousness in this country, please. It is getting embarrassing and the NDC party must get a grip on themselves. As a party that claims it is the main opposition party, it is important some seriousness is attached to the governance process. Get serious, please.

Even though I'm an NPP's follower, I don't think it is appropriate to be dismissing public workers in that manner. We said we are coming for all Ghanaians so where from the sacking again? Some of those people sacked have the potential of lifting the flag of Ghana high and our ruling too great but are sacked all in the name of politics. It a high time we stop this please leaders.

Even the wife of the late Nii Adjei Boye-Sekan, a former Greater Accra Regional Minister, an incorruptible state officer during Jerry Rawlings rule, has been ordered by the President to proceed on indefinite leave. This lady was not employed in the last days of Mahama presidency . A single mother who has two orphaned boys to cater for, has been sent home to bleed to death with her two boys still in School. This is insensitive on the part of the President to be sacking public workers left and right. The lady's deputy, an NPP member, has been made the AG. Director of Private Insurance at the National Health Insurance . Only God can intercede in this matter, and God is watching. The NPP has decided and vowed to sack every worker suspected to be a sympathiser of the NDC, and fill these positions with NPP members. Our God is alive.

It's interesting how beneficiaries of the erstwhile corrupt Mahama led administration which was characterised by wanton display of power and arbitrariness could begin acting as deaf and dumb as if they never witnessed the massive dismissals which took place in the 8, year, rule of the NDC.

Ordinarily I wouldn't have dignified your rhetorics with any response but the lies, deception and factual inaccuracies compelled me to reply.

First of all, how do you expect this woman who came in through the back door or window to be handled? Perhaps you don't know this woman well aside she being a widow with two orphans.

This very woman came to work at the NHIA as Special Assistant to the then CEO, Sylvester Mensah. Guess what?She came in with Diploma in Business Studies (DBS). Then just after seven months, she was sponsored by NHIA to do her degree at UPS even though she wasnt on the NHIA payroll. Immediately after graduation, she was made a senior officer. Strangely enough, this woman again had a sponsorship to do one year masters program outside Gh. All this while, there was a Director Incharge of Private Health Insurance. That notwithstanding, this shoved out the said officer by a green letter from the Presidency appointing her as the Secretary to the Board who doubled as the Director of Private Health Insurance.

Per the provisions of the law establishing the NHIA, the appointment of the Secretary of the Board ends with the tenure of the board. So nothing untoward was done.

Typical of the ndc footsoldiers and propagandists, this very woman who is, projected as innocent did not only instigate the sacking of Mrs Aimee Youri former board Secretary who the she took over from but Emanuel Badu, zakaria sharijei n several others were also sacked.

Isn't it ironical that a deputy director who worked hard to revive the private health insurance which was redundant after this ndc woman took over by championing several reforms including formulation of guidelines for operations of the private scheme, is being portrayed as an undeserving npp person who has just been brought in and made an Ag Director after NPP won?

I didn't know the new Ag Director for the private health insurance hence has to do some quick search about him.Contrary to the impression being created as though he is just been appointed for being an NPP person like in the case of the ndc woman, this gentleman has been working with the nhis since 2005 as a Scheme Manager in Tamale. He was the first batch of managers of the scheme who saw the successful implementation and progress of the scheme despite several challenges including sabotage, frustrations and attacks from the ndc MPs and functionaries in Tamale. He was later made the Regional Director of the NHIA in N/R after competitive selection process, among suitable candidates. He set up the northern regional nhia from scratch just as the metro scheme. How can such a person with world of experience and deep knowledge be portrayed as a common party footsoldier?

He was removed from his post and transferred to the head office with very short notice at the instance of the late ndc northern regional chairman, Alhaj Sumani, who, anyway dropped the hit when he met this gentleman at the Tamale airport when they met. Since when did the ndc chairman become the appointing authority?So the new Ag. Director is more than qualified to be the CEO given his experience and having risen through the ranks to where he is now.

These kind of lies, half truths and selective amnesia, will keep you in opposition for a long time to come.

He who lives by the sword, die by the sword! This is just the beginning!

It is shame for Mahama led-administration to slam AkufoAddo led-NPP government for dismissing mahama's last minute appointments- Such appointments is know to Ghahaian electorates as sabotage tactics. NDC couldn't pay employes salary especialy Teachers and nurse for years and suddenly after losing elections resorted to last munite appointees. Using the dismissal of late Mahama appointees to criticise NPP governmment is shameful. They will gget slilent soon when the specisl prosecutor starts sending them into prisons.

Asiedu Nketia once said that NDC will still be governing from opposition, meaning you have put people in places to make governance difficult for the incoming govt. Secondly ndc pushed a lot of their members into the public service before handing over power. So what do you expect a reasonable person to do? Dismissing them is a step in the right direction.
