Mahama is the best man to lead this country. he has transformed the country and changed lives. What more do we want. JM TOASO. Under the NDC, the EDAIF fund, has supported ninety-one (91) farmers to cultivate 2,645.85 acres of mango plantation. The fund further extended support to the tune of GHC 8.6 million to over 1000 farmers to cultivate about 4,000 acres of cassava with financing to establish three cassava processing factories to enhance the cassava value chain.

Prof. Mills would never had done that,this shows how mahama was brought up. His father had so many children so didn't have time for them to teach them ethics. His foolish followers are also supporting this disgusting thing. Ghanaians both South and North VOTE MAHAMA OUT. He is not presidential at all,he should have been a DCE not a Vice president,he didn't fit that position. Mahama has brought disgrace to Ghana's presidency,he should have learnt from where Obama came from to be President of the United States and how president Obama has comported himself so well at the White House that nobody has anything bad to say about him. He has now opened the doors for the blacks and Compare that to you a disgrace and disgusting to your people. Kai

Apart from Osafo Marfo not being on the ticket, what he said is not necessarily ethnocentric. I don't agree with what Osafo Marfo said but to see it as ethnocentric is to suggest that all resources in Ghana are concentrated in the hands of one ethnic group, which is false! In any case, in some countries the electoral college system, which gives some constituencies more vote share than others, is based on fiscal contribution and/or demographic weight.

The Mahama government is accused of effectively “stealing” $300 million from state coffers as they face their electoral fate in two weeks’ time at the December 7 presidential and parliamentary elections.

Evidence seen by the Daily Statesman shows that already $120 million has been inappropriately taken out of state coffers for this questionable project, which insiders see as a mere cover for cash to fund the ruling party’s electoral efforts.

It is officially a “contract for the improvement of Ghana’s Security Infrastructure Request’. That contract is valued at a huge US$297,475,628.00, which would be yet another big debt for a future government to struggle with after 2016.

The contract is ostensibly for, as stated, “various security equipment, surveillance systems, software and technical training…”

The shipment date for the said goods is stated as November 30, 2016, with China, Dubai, South Africa, USA, UK and Hungary stated as countries of origin.

A very concerned source at the Ministry of Interior disclosed, “There is no basis for this contract, and we know that it would definitely be a prime case for criminal investigations if there is a change of government this year. It is reckless, heartless and totally irresponsible.”

The company behind this deal is Santa Baron Ventures Ltd, which was set up in the UK just seven months ago, on April 19, 2016 in West Molesey, Surrey, UK. The men behind it are a Ghanaian, Kwabena Boateng-Aidoo, and two Britons, Martin Wightman and Daniel Wealthyland.

Sources at the Ministry of Finance suspect that the $120 million that has already been paid out for the project is actually to feed the electoral efforts of the incumbent president.

In a frantic effort to fill the fiscal gap left by the drawn down, the Controller and Accountant General Department on November 10, 2016 authorized the Bank of Ghana to establish deferred payment letters of credit.

The letter signed by Samuel Aryee, acting Deputy Controller & Accountant-General, and addressed to the Director of the Banking Department of BoG, reads: “you are hereby authorized to establish deferred Letters of Credit to the tune of US$297,475,628.00 in favour of Messrs Santa Baron Ventures Limited . . . On behalf of the Ministry of Interior in respect of contract agreement entered into with the above company for the improvement of Ghana’s security infrastructure.”

A deferred payment letter of credit is one that is paid a fixed number of days after shipment or presentation of prescribed documents. It is used where a buyer and a seller have a close working relationship because, in effect, the seller is financing the purchase by allowing the buyer a grace period for payment.

As to how a company set up just seven months ago, with characters of no known record in security matters, managed to win a contract valued at some GH¢1.2 billion equivalent and be considered as worthy of deferred letters of credit is puzzling to civil servants at the Ministry of Finance.

The main faces fronting this deal are Prosper Bani, the Minister of Interior, and Seth Terkper, the Minister of Finance. But, there are said to be three main higher characters actually pushing the levers behind these two ministerial persons.

Another letter dated November 3, 2016 and signed this time by Seth Terkper, authorizing the same deferred letters of credit, puts the maturity for the letters of credit at 2019, with six scheduled payments of some $50 million each from 2017.

“The amount should be charged to the 2017 budget of the Ministry of Interior,” the Finance Minister instructs.

A separate letter signed by James Agalga, Deputy Minister of Interior, dated September 23, 2016, gives some details: “The major condition to be fulfilled on the part of the Principal to enable the General Contractor to deliver as expected, is for the Ministry of Finance to issue an irrevocable deferred letters of credit to cover the entire contract sum of Two Hundred and Ninety Seven Million Four Hundred and Seventy-Five Thousand Six Hundred and Twenty Eight Dollars (USD 297,475,628.00) which is to be spread over three years in six equal instalments, payable between the year 2017 to 2019 as part of the Ministry of Interior’s Medium Term Expenditure Framework.”

MAHAMA, I FEEL SORRY FOR YOU. YOU SEE HOW FOOLISH YOUR ARE NOW BY YOUR "DIVIDE AND RULE" ATTITUDE?" I AM NOT A NORTHNER, BUT INTELL YOU, YOU ARE MAKING A BIG MISTAKE WITH YOUR TRIBAL POLITICS. UNTIL RECENTLY I NEVER BELIEVED WHAT I HAD HEARD ABOUT YOU. THAT YOU ARE VERY VINDICTIVE AND VERY DISRESPECTFUL PERSON. GRANTING THAT YAW OSAFO MARFO EVEN SAID WHAT YOU HAVE JUST QUOTED, AS A HEAD OF THE WHOLE NATION "GHANA", YOU WOULD THINK TWICE BEFORE YOU TOUCH ON SUCH ISSUES. ARE YOU EQUALISING WHAT WAS PURPORTED TO HAVE BEEN SAID BY OSAFO MARFO? IS OSAFO MARFO A PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE? HOW DO YOU FEEL GOING TO OTHER PARTS OF THE COUNTRY TO CAMPAIGN APART FROM THE 3 NORTHERN REGIONS? THIS MEANS YOU JUST TELL THEM LIES. ARE YOU PRESIDENT FOR THE NORTH ONLY? IF AN AKAN MAN HAD SAID "ALL AKANS SHOULD VOTE FOR THEIR SON", WHAT WOULD YOU HAVE SAID. THE SAD THING ABOUT THIS IS THAT YOU DO NOT SEE THE EFFECTS OF YOUR DISGRACEFUL BEHAVIOUR ON GHANAIANS INTERNATIONALLY. A WHOLE PRESIDENT OF A COUNTRY TELLING PEOPLE FROM HIS REGION TO VOTE FOR HIM, AND THEN GOING TO THE REMAINING PARTS OF THE SAME COUNTRY TO SEEK FOR THEIR VOTES! CAN YOU SEE HOW FOOLISH AND STUPID YOU ARE? BY YOUR ACT OF FOOLISHNESS YOU ARE TELLING THE OTHER PARTS OF THE SAME COUNTRY "THEY SHOULD NOT BE FOOLS". AND SO MAHAMA, IN THE UNLIKELY CHANCE THAT YOU WIN THE ELECTIONS, ARE GOING TO NOW PREACH UNITY, ONE COUNTRY, OR YOU WILL ONLY BE PRESIDENT FOR YOUR NORTHERN PART? YOU ARE DAMAGING THE PROSPECTS OF FUTURE NORTHERN POLITICIANS, OKAY! DO NOT TAKE GHANAIANS FOR FOOLS. THEY ARE AWARE OF ALL THE SHADY DEALS, NEPOTISM, TRIBALISM, DISCRIMINATION etc YOU HAVE OPENLY DISPLAYED DURING YOUR TIME, BUT AS A STUDENT OF HISTORY, I AM GLAD THAT YOU KNOW OF THE 3 WISHES OF "ALEXANDER THE GREAT".

Mr Mahama, please learn to talk like a President. The way you talk undermines the unity of the Nation.
Note that you are not a serial caller. Kindly speak with wisdom. Learn from President Kuffour.

Even if Osafo Marfo is not the candidate, he was speaking for NPP led by Nana Addo. In politics everything is fair and game. In the US elections, issues that happened about 24 years ago when Bill Clinton was president were raised against Hillary Clinton. So no one should say the comments by Marfo happened back in 2015. They still stand and the NPP leader has not yet condemned them. This hypocrisy is what the President is talking about. Donald Trump has shown that there is nothing as being politically correct. Say it as it is. When any of his other 16 rivals attacked him, he always attacked back. That is the rules of the game. Bawumia and his wife cannot be roaming among Muslim and Northern settlements castigating the president and you expect him to be diplomatic because he is the president. He is also a candidate as well and must put down his presidential cap and wear his campaign NDC cap and return fire for fire. Finito.

John Mahama your epitaph on tribalism has not place in Ghana. You are as divisive as your late fathet and that was the reason Dr. Nkrumah sacked him as the then Regional Minister of the Northern Region. John Mahama your irresponsible talk on diatribe, ethinocentrism and tribal infusions have incensed and divided Ghana like never before. No Ghanaian leader, both military and civilians ever took us down the pit like you. You are a big misfortune that ever happened to Ghana. You are tipping Ghana off the cliff and you will pay a hefty price should the unexpected happen to this beautiful nation. Mahama you are a disgrace to Atta Mills and it gives cause for all well meaning Ghanaians to be concerned. Its a pain that a man born in Ghana will rather hate the land of his birth as you do. Ghana from Nkrumsh till the death of Atta Mills has done more than enough for northetners than the British did in their 400 years of our colonization. You need to apologize to the good people of Ghana. Shame on you for your politics,if division. We the Socieyy for Prevention of Corruption And Cruelty Against Ghana condern in no uncertain terms this reckless talk and craze from you. All the people of Ghana must rise up and condernm this sick mentality. Election 2016 is a test of our unity as a country. You mahama is a referandum on the ballot box for the highly debt and hopelessness you have sunk Ghana into. We will defeat you and ndc as a unified state and preserve the unity of Ghana. Your utterances are unbecoming of a real Ghanaian. You are a shame to Rawlings, Tsikata, Atta Mills, northerners and all the good people of democratic Ghana. Hey Mahama, let all the three northern regions vote for you and the remaining seven regions vote for Nana Akuffo Addo, you will lose. Mahama you a whiner and a loser. You whine too much and unappreciative of Ghana. Why don't you resign if you think Ghana is a bad place for you and your family? A divider, corrupt and unGhanaian in outlook, culture and values. Resign mahama. Such a disgrace and bribe taker has no place in our united country. Get off our lawn. Ghana is for all Ghanaians, not nottherners or some what half-baked Ghanaian. Get out, enough of your endangering Ghana. We will act to save our country from being sold to foreigners. Go away Mahama.

The President is very much worried. The plans they laid for the NPP, was aborted by the suspension of Afoko and the people they the Ndc planted. Afoko and his men were motivated to creat confusion within the party that have given them the opportunity to serve at the highest level. These men betrayed their trust. President Mahama and the Ndc are rightly frustrated because they spent so much money and other resources, just to undo the efforts of Nana Addo, from within his own party. This has failed. If President Mahama says the NPP is divided, how come there are so much we see at the rallies and on the campaign trail of the NPP? John Dramani Mahama should know, he is the President and commander of the Ghana Armed Forces of Ghana. Osafo Marfo is an ordinary party member of the NPP. Here lies the difference. Mr. President.

For some of us who have been with the NPP traditions for a long time, its only under Akuffo Addo that we have such violence of party members fighting among them selves. Were we not in Ghana when Bugri Naabu said on a radio talk show that he will investigate and deal with any one who votes for Allan Kyeremateng? How about the drawing of cutlasses at the party head office. One lady called Araba was beaten and striped naked all because she was fixing posters of another candidate other than Nana Addo at the head office. The examples are many but because of Nana does on wrong,party members are blind to the wrong doings in the party. Yes the party is not united and I pity people who are optimistic the NPP will win this elections. Well as usual am waiting for my insults.

The Presidential Oath of Ghana in part enjoins the President "to do right to all manner of Ghanaians". Is that what is happening when instead of apologizing or regretting for his ethnocentric diatribe, our President is rather telling an opposition leader to condemn his supporter. Who has taken the Presidential Oath. Time and again this tribal attacks and stereotyping of a particular tribe has been the campaign tool of the President and his party. The time has come for all well-meaning citizens to condemn this divide and rule tactics of ndc. It is very shameful in this 21st Century for a head of state to dabble in tribal politics just to win political power.
