Corruption allegations are flying all over the place like provoked wild bees ever since this lunatic junkie ugly dwarf took over, and immediately they (those corrupt practices) appear they are quickly flushed down the bridge and if that's what being selfless/incorruptible means then God save Ghana. Ever since this junkie dwarf terrorist took over everything has been given a new definition - lawlessness has become the new order, lies have become what everybody wants to hear (the new truth) and corruption has become the new normal way of doing things. What a country!

have you seen what is happening at BOST?
more corruption are to follow. Why is the president not interested in investigating the issue?
Is it because his daughter is involved?

Nana Addo and his admirers like this Hayford guy refused to see how France is annexing Cote d'Ivore and had never created any meaningful jobs for the youths of that country yet the country seemed to be 'shining" to backward Ghanaians.
To know that France is milking this nation and her people dry, buy a two $2.00 phone cards from the US and call Ghana and the C.I with each of them cards, and find out how much both courtesies air time would give you.
The economy of C.I is under the thumb of France and I know these Hayford guy and other EUROCENTRIC people want the same for Ghana. To be under the thumb of some Europale nation where things might be "shining but not gold"?

Kwame Nkrumah had lived a life of selflessness thru all the projects that keep sustaining this nation till today, and he had done this for all to see and also known to have NO HOUSE for himself, and you could hypocritical say a man who had not yet done nothing for Ghana since he's being a president merely six months ago is the most selfless of all African president?
Let's praise those praise is due to show our children what is right, and STOP the HYPOCRISY for once.
This praise was like giving Obama a Noble Price three months after being elected as president of the US, and we had regretted it when drones were killing poor people across Asia and Africa.

WHAT HAS AKUFFO ADDO IMPLEMENTED IN THE COUNTRY SINCE BEING ELECTED AS PRESIDENT OF GHANA.

HE HAS ONLY APPOINTED ONE HUNDRED AND THIRTY(130)MINISTERS AND DEPUTIES A RECORD EVER SET BY AN ELECTED LEADER THROUGHOUT THE WHOLE WORLD.

SHOUKLD ZONGOS AND CEMETARIES HAVE A MINISTER.

ARE ZONGOS TOWNS AND VILLAGES,OR THEY ARE OF PLACES LIVING FOR MOSLEMS, CHRISTIANS AND NON CHRISTIANS IN A CITIES AND TOWNS.

PLEASE, YOU CAN PRAISE THE PRESIDENT OF GHANA, AKUFFO ADDO AS SELFLESS, BUT YOU NEED TI KNOW, GHANA IS NOT BETTER THAN ANY COUNTRY IN AFRICA.

WHAT IS ASTONISHING, THIS FOLK, WHO CALLS HIMSELF A FINANCIAL EXPERT HAS STILL FAILED TO CONDEMN THE ONE HUNDERED AND THIRTY MINISTERS OF STATE AND DEPUTIES APPOINTED BY AKUFFO ADDO, IN A HEAVILY INDEPTED POOR COUNTRY IN THE WORLD.

WHERE IS THE PRESIDEBNT GETTING THE FUNDS TO PAY THEM THEIR MONTHLY SALARIES AT A TIME THAT, THE INFRASRUCTURE IN THE COUNTRY,ELEMENTRAY SCHOLS OF THE 20TH CENTURY ARE IN DEPLOLRABLE CONDITIONS AND MINISTERIES,GHANA RAILWAYS AND ROADS HAVE LL BROKEN DOWN IN THE COUNTRY.

THE SO CALLED EDUCATED ARE NOT CONTRIBUTING NOTHING WITH THEIR DEGREES AND PHD TITLES TOWARDS THE ECONOMIC GROWTH OF GHANA, DOES IT MEAN HE IS USING THE FUNDS EARNED FOR THE NATION BY THE HARDWORKING COCOA FARMERS AND UNSKILLED MINE WORKERS TO PAY THEM.

VERY DISGRACEFUL.

IS THIS SINGING PRAISES AND FOR AKUFFO ADDO TO APPOINT HIM AS AN AMBASSADOR TO CANADA.

Why are these educated illiterates behave as if they live in their bedrooms? His comment is read world wide so he should use his head a little. You cannot make such statement without any basis. Did he do some logic in college? No wonder Ghanaian lecturers do not write books nor conduct research but demand books and research allowance. It's a shame to disgrace our academic population. I blame NPP who encourage truancy and lies.

What is this dust being thrown into Ghanaians' eyes about Akufo-Addo all of a sudden being a saint, the so-called incorruptible Ghanaian politician? What arrant nonsense!!! Do we Ghanaians not know very well Akufo-Addo and the role he played in the corrupt NPP administration under Kufuor's leadership? Is Akufo-Addo's track record of corruption not available for all Ghanaians to see? Why are NPP people and those disguised politicians like this Casely-Hayford attempting to mislead us Ghanaians by trying to paint a picture of Akufo-Addo that he is not? Why do they think that we can all of a sudden forget who Akufo-Addo really is?

Those corruption allegations hanging around Akufo-Addo's neck that he stubbornly failed to aaddress before the 2016 elections can never be wished away by Casely-Hayford and NPP people. Ghanaians will keep reminding themselves of Akufo-Addo and the NPP's true dirty colours. Below are some that have already been posted on Ghanaweb.com:

1. Like former President Kufuor, Akufo-Addo claims to be a lawyer, but he has failed to tell Ghanaians where precisely he earned his law degree. We do know that he was kicked out of the University of Oxford and that he returned home and entered the University of Ghana where he earned a mere 3rd class degree in economics. He claims his law certificate is missing, but are there not legal ways and means of getting a replacement of his certificate if he did in fact earn it but lose the original?

2. As Attorney-General and Minister of Justice in the Kufuor administration, Akufo-Addo oversaw the de-confiscation of his cousin Raymond Amankwah, a noted cocaine baron's frozen assets and returned them to him. This Amankwah was arrested in Brazil for cocaine trafficking and imprisoned. By de-confiscating and returning his frozen properties, Akufo-Addo enabled him to get away scot-free.

3. As Attorney-General, Aklufo-Addo in 2001 suddenly discontinued prosecuting one Frank Benneh for drug trafficking, a case that the then NDC's Deputy Attorney-General Mr. Martin Amidu, had started prosecuting vigorously.

4. As Attorney-General, he failed willfully to prosecute three NPP Dzorwulu branch drug queens who had been arrested in February 2002 at the Kotoka International Airport for attempting to export cocaine outside the country. Not only did the case vanish into thin air, but their dockets also mysteriously disappeared from Akufo-Addo's office.

5. Unlike any other NPP (or their antecedents of UP or Progress Party) leader or potential leader, Akufo-Addo alone has been accused of drug addiction. Why is it so?

6. As Minister of Foreign Affairs, Akufo-Addo issued at least 12 diplomatic passports (which actually were alleged to be missing) to his cronies. In fact, one of those passports was found with a Ghanaian cocaine deader who was arrested in Singapore.

7. The GNPC drill ship saga also hangs around Akufo-Addo's neck. What happened to the rest of the money from the sale of the ship? Remember, this case was mentioned against him in the Auditor-General's report. Akufo-Addo was said to have caused financial loss to the state.

8. And when the history of the Fourth Republic is written, it will be indicated that it was the Kufuor's NPP administration that turned Ghana into a cocaine hub in the West African sub-region and that Akufo-Addo was a key minister in that administration.

9. Indeed, as a parliamentarian, Akufo-Addo pushed hard for a law, dubbed "Amoateng Bill", to be promulgated to essentially permit Ghanaian drug offenders jailed in Thailand to be returned to Ghana to serve the rest of their terms.

10. As Foreign Minister during the Kufuor administration, his Ministry withdrew US$1,446,396.00 from its Special Collections Accounts of seven embassies without the prior knowledge and consent of the Controller and Account-General. Also, an amount of US$106,168.00 was misappropriated at the Ghana mission in Cote d'Ivoire

The above are among the pertinent corruption allegations made against Nana Akufo-Addo that he he failed to addresse. You can't merely ignore them and pretend that you're uncorrupt and incorruptible. It is only in Ghana whose citizenry are so stupid as to ignore that kind of your background and so voted to make you president. You have just succeed in throwing dust into the eyes.

Nana Akufo-Addo, your promise to tackle corruption if you became president can be likened to a cat that pledges to those in the animal kingdom that it can take good care of all the mice if it's given that responsibility. You and the NPP administration raped Ghana and tarnished its reputation when it comes to the issue of corruption. It was during the Kufuor administration, of which you played an integral part as Attorney-General & Minister of Justice and later as Minister of Foreign Affairs, that Ghana became a cocaine hub in the West African sub-region. Indeed, the NPP was dubbed "Cocaine Party" during that administration.

You can fool yourselves and the NPP electorate who stand to gain from your corruption as president. Your personal and the entire NPP's track record on corruption is well known and documented. Given your corrupt record, especially the way and manner in which you and your party raped Ghana left and right, only the devil must have opened the door for you to come back to power, your numerous false prophets leading the way. Thank God, the evil NPP elements like Kennedy Agyapong are there to expose you all, especially in terms of how your party used evil means to rig the 2016 elections. Already six months into your administration, there is talk about how corruption has already infected your ranks.

Of course, I can imagine those uncivilised and semi-literate NPP adherents who lack the ability to discuss the issues intelligently but who possess plenty of such insulting terms as "fool", "idiot", "aboa", "kwasia", "bull" and so on, coming on here to demonstrate their incivility; they are at liberty to do so, because I know that the truth hurts.

The man has been in office for just six months, and without documenting any monumental accomplishments by his administration, you come out with your sycophantic adulation. I bet Sidney has no clue about what most Presidents around Africa are doing in their respective nations. This is the same Casely who is exhorting Akufo-Addo to sack Ms. Safo for for her fabrication about the High School in her district. If Akufo-Addo were a clear thinker, he certainly would not have needed any plodding from you to dismiss one of his cabinet members. Casely was so busy OCCUPYING Ghana that his thinking no longer is clear.

How selfless is Nana Mr Casford? You think Ghanaians are bloke-headed and undiscerning? But of course we know where you are coming from. You did everything possible to run down Mahama's administration and here you are giving praise to an imbecile frothing mouthed President who has so far superintended only over graft. Please Nana does not deserve the acolade. Do the honourable thing to withdraw it and apologize to Ghanaians.

These statements are premature for President Addo. Though he is said to be a good man. Let us wait and see what he does.
