"This is worse than I thought… Government was actually able to speedily mobilize 3.5 million dollars in less than twenty four hours, bundle the cash in bags, chatter a flight from Ghana to Brazil, hire 72 Military Police, 19 Municipal Guards, 26 Squadron Ground Force Military, 14 members of the Grupamento de Operacoes Especiais de Brasilia, One Aeronautical Policia (Air Force), 2 Highway Patrol Battalion and an Air Mobile Brasilia Group to send the $3.5 million through the streets of Brasilia to the players. Woow!!! Hahaha eih!“
Not only is President Mahama impulsive and immature, he is also corrupt or how can he stop the investigation into the $63,000 a month rent by NPA under the Chairmanship of Moses Asaga? His own Chief of Staff, Prosper Bani asked the Energy Ministry not to renew the rent agreement at the end of the current tenure, adding "the Presidency is reviewing the approval processes that went into the decision to commit state funds to rent an office when the upfront payment involved could have completed a permanent office building for the NPA.
What is the President reviewing?
Why stop the investigation?
Who owns this building?
How much money was paid upfront that Mr Bani said could have built NPA its own office?
In Ghana where rent payment is usually paid upfront between one year and five years, the upfront payment by NPA could be as little as $756,000 and as much as $3,780,000.
The initial contract is rumoured to have been signed when Alexander Mould was the NPA CEO and the building from the grapevine is owned by a female former Attorney General.
The question then is this; Was this investigation stopped to cover up for the President and his party insatiable corruption? GHANAIANS WANT TO KNOW.
Mr. President, tell us how much money was paid upfront to rent this building and who the owner of this building is. This information is readily available to you and does not need any investigation. IS THIS TOO MUCH TO ASK BY GHANAIAN TAXPAYERS?

The acidic bath murder of the Npp Chairman of the Upper East Region Adams Mahamah on Wednesday, May 20th came as a shock to many Ghanaians, especially those of us in the Elephant family and our deepest condolences go to the family of this selfless man who financially, morally and courageously served the party he loved and ultimately paid with his life.
Ghanaians of all walk of life have shown how much we care for each other and even our political rivals, Ndc and its members at least for now have restrained themselves in making political capital out of this heinous crime and have shown their sorrow for the passing away of this man. This murder should be treated as a crime against humanity and not as a inter party internal wrangling.
I am highly disappointed with the leadership of Npp who have nurtured the festering factions in the party that has led to the death of Mr. Adams Mahamah instead of our leaders coming together and solving whatever problems between the Alan Kyerematteng and Nana Akuffo Addo's factions after our Presidential candidate was elected.Two people,including the younger brother of the New Patriotic Party's national chairman, Paul Afoko has been fingered as one of the two assailants who poured acid on the Upper East Regional chairman of the party leading to his death.Before he was murdered, Mr Adams Mahama has had a feud with the National Party Chairman, Mr Paul Afoko for ostensibly disrespecting him Mr Mahama for not informing him when he Mr Afoko and Kwabena Agyapong visited Upper East Region for party business.
The implication of Mr Afoko's brother, Gregory Afoko as one of the two assailants rankled party supporters who have massed at the Part headquarters baiting for the blood of Mr Afoko and the Party General Secretary who are perceived as Alan Kyerematteng supporters and supposedly impeding the efforts to get Nana Akuffo Addo elected.
In my humble opinion and if the two individuals, Chairman Afoko and Secretary love the Npp, they should resign their positions in the party so that party will have peace and and save them the little respect they still have in the Party.As Wintson Churchill said; "To jaw jaw is always better than war war" and as a party, we need to solve our internal problems peacefully by talking it out instead of resorting to acids to evaporate human beings.
Ghana needs peace and we need to give Ghanaians hope that Npp can steer the affairs of this country if power is given to us but our behavior so far have given Ghanaians no confidence that we are ready to assume power which we need to change immediately, not soon.Once again, Mr Afoko and Mr Kwabena Agyapong should relinquish their stranglehold of the Party headquarters and their positions for peace to return to our beloved party.

like sending over $3 million to Brazil without thinking through the legality of his actions.
President Mahama during the 2012 Presidential elections touted his youthfulness at the age of 54 at the time as an advantage over the 67 year old Nana Akuffo Addo. It didn't hurt that his blithesome nature which served as a defensive mechanism to hide his sordid past.President Mahama in his own book titled "My first coup d'tat" admitted that, he is a man who have problems making up his mind and has also been suspected by President Mills of being corrupt despite this knowledge, Ghanaians went ahead and elected him as our President despite his emotional immaturity and impulsiveness. Ghanaian voters were aware of his reckless sexual excapades that has led to him having children out of wedlock with many women and this did not scre us to take a second look at him before we cast our votes.
A case in point is when he paid a working visit to the Kumasi shoe factory and when he saw all the shoes being made, he immediately promised to provide shoes to school children free at a time when even free dress to school children had not been implemented fully due to financial constraints and school feeding program is collapsing because of lack of funds but his giddiness at times make him make impulsive decisions.
"This is worse than I thought… Government was actually able to speedily mobilize 3.5 million dollars in less than twenty four hours, bundle the cash in bags, chatter a flight from Ghana to Brazil, hire 72 Military Police, 19 Municipal Guards, 26 Squadron Ground Force Military, 14 members of the Grupamento de Operacoes Especiais de Brasilia, One Aeronautical Policia (Air Force), 2 Highway Patrol Battalion and an Air Mobile Brasilia Group to send the $3.5 million through the streets of Brasilia to the players.
