Action Movement of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) has accused the former first lady, Lordina Mahama and the siblings of former President John Mahama of being the cause of NDC defeat in the 2016 elections. The spokesperson of the group, Kodzo Hamenya Keglo speaking at the Ghana International Press Centre said “while JM was preaching made in Ghana goods (such as shoes, batik and locally made clothes), the wife was doing the opposite by printing T Shirts from China which is a huge disappointment for Ghanaian printing companies.The 20 million pieces of T Shirts JM’s wife printed from China, could have been shared to party members to print them locally and would have created a lot of jobs for Ghanaians.”
JM’s brothers are the main reason why we lost the 2016 elections, collecting all contracts from Airport, Roads, Cocoa Board, GNPC, ECG , VRA, Ministry of Power and all major contracts in the country.“If you don’t see JM brothers, you cannot get a contract and if you see them, then you have to pay money before you get the contract, frustrating foreign contractors and companies by taking Ghanaian contractors for granted and creating enemies for the NDC party,”

In this era of armed robbery and improvement in our banking system, does a company like Guiness Ghana ltd. carry cash around villages? Why not accept checks or deposit cash collected from sales before they move to another town? In fact they deserve it.

There was no robbery in Ghana during NDC era, right? Even the politicians, and all the NDC executives joined in the armed robbery then.

Had the distribution company resorted to taking payments by other modern non-cash means, such an ambush would not even be thought about.

It is time we accelerated the growth of cashless transactions. It will reduce the risk of such robbery.

As could be possible, even in this case, the body guards, including the Police Escorts, might well be suspects. How did the robbers know the victims were conveying that much cash with them?

Long Live Ghana!!!

I wonder why such a big enterprise as Guiness GH Ltd will not implement direct debit/cheque payments but rely on out-moded cash payments!!

Because all payments are ade by cash, armed robbers always know who to attack and when to do so.

In countries where business payments are made by direct debits or cheques transfers, armed robbers have zero chance and they know it so they wont even try robbing a distribution truck.

I actually wonder why a big company like Guiness GH Ltd will accept cash, instead of direct debits.

The policeman surely is an accomplice. He should be arrested and interrogated.

Even petty traders are now using mobile money and other none cash payments. Arrest the police escort, he is the ring leader.

Why the police service when it is not a national entity?
They should have engaged a private service provider for their security.
