Enough of this empty propaganda about Amidu! There are millions of unknown heros out there in this country? By the way,who are those toasting Amidu? The NPP opposition,who when this man wa investigating the corrupt Kufour and is cronies EO group, they jumped on him and called him a dirty "pepeni ba" Isn´t it absurd for Amidu to be in bed with these same people? Majority of Ghanaians are very happy just like I am but I think the praise on Amidu and the way he himself is carrying out himself is diminishing what he has done.If such things could make somebody a president,Akufo Addo and his thugs wouldn´t be terrorising us by now since there would be a very long queue for the presidency.Enough of it!

I agree with you except your comment on Appiah Ofori's suggestion. He is talking about about 2013 as you are anticipating 2016. He stands the chance of President Mahama caalling him back if he has the balls.

Martin Amidu must stand as an Independent Presidential Candidate and I for one will go out to campaign for him. And his duty is to appoint HUMAN BEINGS as God wants us to be and NOT ANIMALS who crave for the survival of the fittest.

I am fed up with these heartless creatures - men and women with FAULTY brains. Cry, beloved country!

Too short, fat and lacks personal appeal to be president in the 21st century Africa! We often find it hard to face reality but charisma and good personal appearance are very important in politics! Kuffour would have won 2008 election without any doubt though he was a dishonest president with no integrity. All he needed was a win in either Brong Ahafo or Western region in addition to Ashanti and Eastern region. He would have also done much better in Eastern and Ashanti than Akuffo Addo!! The truth hurts!!!!

Yes, presidency has nothing to do with outward beauty but the inner one. Martin has so far proved that he is beautiful internally.

Dr. Busia was the most honest, brilliant and hardworking leader our republic has ever known yet, due to lack of charisma, his own party members walked on him like a door mate. Second on the list was Prof Mills, his lack of charisma did him in. Dr Limann was an intelligent but suffered similar fate as Busia for lack of charisma. Dr. Nkrumah and Rawlings are charismatic whilst Kuffour win the "beauty" and the charming contest hand down. Amidu can never be president of Ghana even if he is able to raise the humongous billions of cedis Akuffo Addo has been successful in doing. Money will not buy a short, fat and no so good looking politician the presidency, not in this facebook era!!!

In eyes of Nigerians, especially the Yorubas, Obasanjo is a tall and handsome man. Every culture has its own way of measuring beauty. Akyems find Akuffo Addo handsome but Ashantis do not see power, charisma, and political leadership in short, fat and not so good looking men. If we go by brains, then Rawlings and Kuffour would not have been heads of state. Why not make Dr. Frempong Boateng or Dr. Arthur Kennedy presidents? Why is Alan Cash so popular with many Ghanaians? Charisma and personal appeal accounts for 50% of the campaign to lead. Dr. Bawumia will also do well in the future but not against president Mahama. The truth hurts, my friend!!!!

Martin Amidu stands tall among all in a country where corruption is made to look like officially recognized institution with "woyomenized" criminals walking the corridors of political power.

Seriously, it takes a dependably honest and selflessly trustworthy patriotic nationalist with divinely gifted and outstanding qualities above all to act to speak on behalf of the poor the way Martin Amidu did in face of all the horrendous hostilities thrown against him by his own corrupt NDC party men, some kinsmen, close friends and the hugely corrupt society of Ghana.

Martin Amidu is today a popular house hold name all over the country hugely respected, have absolute personal dignity to be proud of and an envious creditable profession to sail him to the shores of success.

A possible future President?

Then let us form the "Friends of Martin Amidu" political group in preparation for his contesting the 2016 elections. There is nothing that can save Ghana more than a president who would be incorruptible and vigilant in protecting state money and resources. I hope Ghanaians will join me in forming such a group.

Yes . Mr. Amidu for president. He is principled and tenacious, I would vote and campaign for him. The other thing is, he deserves to have a percentage of the monies recovered given to him. He did the work! It might also encourage other whistle blowers, to rid our country of corruption.

If a person like Amidu were to get power he will spend all his time trying to get back at people, thereby sowing the seed of discord. The look on his face tells you that he is a bitter and treacherous person.

I don't see Amidu as having any moral authority at all, especially after he reportedly grabbed a state land as a minister during Rawlings PNDC era Till today, he hasn't returned it or denied it. His ego comes before his teammates. That alone invokes a dislike for him, disqualifying him in earnest
