Idiots and illiterates, could you please leave her alone.

I believe this idiocy is coming from the office of the fatty bleached face 1st lady. What is her position and how much does she earn to become a Santa Claus in our Society to be dashing and doling gifts all over.

FOOLS. Leave the 2nd lady alone and let do whatever she was; at least she is more educated than the bleached face.

Thomas Owiredu, what is wrong with Mathilda Amissah-Arthur trying to help disadvantaged communities?

I am sure her public-spiritedness is with the full blessing of Lordina Mahama.

We must be thankful that we have two leading ladies who are trying to help develop our society.

What would you rather have our Second lady do - stay at home and be a housewife?

Look, get real and appreciate the good things people do.

Nyansasem, sometimes you do wonder how some Ghanaians could possibly 'reason' themselves in writing such absolutely stupid and childish nonsense.

Presumably, there is no friendly rapport between the First Lady, Lordina Mahama and Second Lady, Matilda Amissah-Arthur. However, instead of proudly supporting Matilda Amissah-Arthur's charity activities and awareness campaign, this idiot of a man, Thomas Owiredu, wants Matilda to be confined to the kitchen as her exposure to the national socio-political scene is overshadowing the First Lady, Lordina. How pathetic!

This, Thomas Owiredu, is typical of some Ghanaians abroad who call Immigration/Police officers on fellow Ghanaians and Africans out of jealousy.

Lonton-Boy, which part of the article is difficult for you t understand? Where did the writer argue that the Second Lady should be confined to the Kitchen? I salute Mr. Thomas Owiredu for a well thought out article. The Second Lady is not on her own. Her activities need to be regulated by the protocol department. How can she be embarking on the very projects the first lady has chosen? I sense jealousy mixed with envy. The Vice-President ought to call his wife to order

This is the most stupid article I have ever read on Ghanaweb. Where is it stipulated in the constitution that First and Second ladies cannot do humanitarian work? If an ordinary citizen could engage in humanitarian activities and receive recognition from the press and other bodies, what makes it a contention between the so-called first and ladies, do same? Oh Oman Ghana!
Instead of commending Matilda Amissah, the writer of this shameful article, who appears to be a die-hard sycophant of Lordina Mahama, feels threatened by her good works. I think this guy knows very well that Matilda Amissah is well educated the Lordina. I think we all listened to the shameful presentation that Lordina did at the UN last year. How she fumbled over the pronunciation of certain words in her speech, a situation which Matilda Amissah would not do. Shame on the writer of the article.

Apart from the fact that the entire article is full of misplaced hatred and baseless finger-pointing, I happen to know both Ladies long before they came into the public eye. For your information, Thomas Owiredu, there is a very good reason why Matilda is so successful at this, so much more than Lordina. She is much better-educated and was involved in these activities long before she became Second Lady. Next time, do your research before you expose your ignorance and petty jealousy for all to see.

Mr. Owiredu, have you considered the plight of the recipients of the good works of 2nd Lady Matilda Amissah Arthur?.As you rightly mentioned,she is hovering over the places attending to the needy by way of donating medical equipment,books,mats,foodstuff etc. Is there anything wrong with that? Please, if you can't appreciate her efforts, don't paint a negative picture of her. She is being proactive and thinking outside the box. For your information,if you have ever had the opportunity of saying thank you to Matilda for her good work, you would realize that she never takes credit for what she does but humbly ask you to give thanks to God for the opportunity given to serve.

What a hell is this writer talking about?
A very myopic writer. Either this writer wants favour from the powers that be, or somebody has paid him to write this rubbish.

We are a developing country, so the more hands on deck the better!!!

In the UK, where I live, the Prime Ministers wife has a paid job and is not seen doing charity work!!!! Her husband is busy fixing the economy, improving the National Health Service, improving education and empowering local governments to deal with sanitation, etc!!!!

So the wives don't get involved!!!

But in Ghana, our problems are many and describable , so if the Vice Presidents wife is getting involved and helping out, what is the big deal?

Sometime last year, Mrs Amissah Arthur behaved what was seen as "rude" when she refused to great the chiefs of Volta Region at a durbar that was organised in her honour, at the peak of the Ebola disease.

She refused to shake the hands of the chiefs. In her speech she apologised to the chiefs for not shaking their hands but explained that if touching somebody's hand, could spread Ebola and kill human beings as the World Health bodies were saying, then it was time we African found another way of greeting!!!!. SIMPLE!!

At the time, some of us thought it was rude behavior but international bodies fighting to control the Ebola epidemic, told the world that African way of greeting by shaking hands, touching dead bodies etc, was promoting the spread of the Ebola disease. and they found it hard to bring the disease under control at the time!!

Commentators starting commenting on the boldness of Mrs Amissah Arthur by creating that awareness.

At the time, American and European nurses were dying in West Africa, because the African would not stop their habit of touching the Ebola dead bodies or shaking hands.

So Mrs Amissah Arthur's so called "rude" behaviour in the Volta Region, was hailed.

She was not a hero, she was bold enough to bring awareness to a continent that is riddled with custom that was killing its people.

Her action didnt make Mrs Mahama the first lady, any lesser.

They are both using the time allocated to their husbands term in office, to help with our development as a nation

So I hope Mrs Mahama or her office does not reward this pointless writer.

With regard to Mrs Amissah Arthurs personal behaviour with her staff, we will never get to know the truth or hear her side!!!

So If there are concerns, let the employers of the staff deal with any complaints.

Please dont kill initiatives in Ghana, we are still developing and there is so much work to do...

Writer Thomas Oweredu, dont sow a seed of discord between these two ladies. They are both doing their bits to help mother Ghana.

Having read the article and the reactions underneath, I am surprise at the comments of some people on this forum? Are they saying that it is right for the Second Lady to begin doing the very thing the First Lady is doing? It does not happen anywhere. The writer is absolutely right in the argument he put forward. My conclusion is that if it is true that the Second Lady is into a project the First Lady began, then she does not respect her and this is unfortunate. Let us bear in mind that just as the President and the Vice-President are not equal, so are the First Lady and Second Lady not equal. It is not about age or educational background. It is about the position they currently occupy. If the First Lady has decided to go into offering humanitarian assistance, the Second Lady can decide to assist her by liaising with her and helping her out. The two should work together. But if the Second Lady want to do her own project, then it certainly cannot be that which her senior, the First Lady has embarked on. We can have only one First Lady at a time, not two. The Second Lady must humble herself to the First Lady just as her husband has humbled himself to the President

It is sad how people are paid pennies to come on platforms n insult their mothers because of politics and later at night pray to God for blessing...There is nothing wrong with disagreement but if u claim u are enlightened show it in your criticism. State protocol must work, who ever wrote this article should go interview the authorites. Second ladies P.R must slow down..not her aid. The first lady has a very big heart and it is alright for the second to emulate but promoting like competition is clearly misplaced.

The mother of our nation has proved herself during the short time span of being the first lady. She has a natural aura of being a mother figure, she has been sensitive to the needs of those in need.
Now onto the second lady Mrs Matilda Amisah-Arther where in the world have you ever heard the second lady duplicating what the first lady has already embarked on? It is not done any where in the Western world but only in Ghana where we allow stupidity to get the best of us. Secondly you either help out the first lady in projects such as the Lordina foundation and walk in her shadow or you do your own thing. If you were to take a leaf out of Madame Lordina's book the first thing i would strongly advise is to change your attitude as it stinks, as the second lady you need to be warm, humble and also a people's person. People that have met Mrs Mahama in person during state function can testify to her warm demeanour. Mr vice president kindly advise your wife on her to humble herself.

Matilda is not doing her husband good because it seems she is out of control of the husband and it goes a long way to affect their future political carrier,it will be good for madam Matilda to respect her excellency the first lady as her husband the vice president does to His Excellency the president,each one of them should work according to their work scheduled.To those insulting the writer I think it will be better for them to share their views on how the two can be reconcile either than castigating at the writer he did nothing wrong.

Yes,our second lady needs to mind her own business and also create something to do and stop copying the first lady Lordina Mahama.Will she take it lightly if she was in the first lady's shoes.The second lady Matilda Amissah- Arthur seems to be robbing shoulders with the first lady.There are so many things the second lady can do on her own and do it better,instead of imitating the first lady and not doing it right. This does not help in development in anyway.The second lady Matilda Amissah-Arthur should be grateful to have someone in the person of Lordina Mahama as the first lady who will keep quite over issues like this.

I am in utter shock. your entire article is completely repulsive and useless. I find nothing wrong with the Second lady trying to make a difference rather than be in the shadow of our "Almighty" first lady
